    Great External CD/DVD Drive

    Woks as advertised and is very easy to use. Majority of the time it is quiet but sometimes you do hear it working more. It is small in size and very lightweight. So far I have just been using it for putting my music cd's onto my laptop. Honestly for the price you can't pass it up. It really is a great product!

    Great DVD-Writer Drive

    I have several DVD's of family events that I wanted to make available to other family members. This FG device works well for my duplication projects. It is easy to use and performs well.

    As advertised

    Slim and portable for fast writing speeds. I've only use it to burn cds, however it has been quite stable throughout my use. It's a little loud but I wouldn't consider it annoying.

    Small and light

    I have been looking for a 14" laptop with optical drive and they are impossible to find. So I had to get external DVD drive/burner. This was the cheapest available. Another pro - it is small and light, can fir into a pocket in the laptop bag. The con - it is only shipped, no store pickup, so you pay extra for shipping. And I just don;t have extra space on my desk to have another gadget dangling of my laptop. Please bring back 14" laptops with optical drives!!!
