Driver burners are a dime a dozen over the Internet, and since flash drives and other more reliable and expansive storage media are gaining more and more ground, it is no wonder that this particular type of software is steadily losing its footing.

Another downside to most such programs is the fact that they are extremely big and have an impact on the system's resources, even when not doing the actual disc burning operation.

That is why most customers should start shifting towards more lightweight alternatives, one of which could be Drive Director .NET.

Before talking about the program's functionality, we must first praise it by how lightweight it seems, starting with the fact that it doesn't even require a setup process to use, meaning no system registries are modified when using it.

Once you open it, you'll be greeted by a simple and intuitive UI, albeit some of you may find it to be a bit on the "retro" side.

All the tools brought by Drive Director .NET are neatly labeled, so there's no way you can mistake one function for another, and their sheer numbers make the program quite practical.

Drive Director .NET includes tools used for disc copying, image creation, image burning, disc erasing, and it also gives you the ability to check the in-depth disc info of whatever is already in your optical drive.

Another neat feature worth mentioning is that Drive Director .NET can also serve as a system info tool, albeit only as far as your drivers are concerned.

While not the most polished or feature-rich program of its kind out there, Drive Director .NET manages to do all of the things it is supposed to do perfectly, making it a great tool to consider.
