2.0 or FireWire (NST-525UF only) offering speeds up to 480Mbps and eliminating the
need to open your system. The NexStar 2 is perfect for anyone looking to add any 5.25”
device, such as a CD/DVD burner, to a notebook or desktop computer. Because you
don’t have to open your computer, you don’t have to worry about voiding your existing
