Yes, I use a Dell made portable dvd drive, and it works well. I watch videos with the VLC media player that you can download easily.

Depending on the compatibility of your specific model external CD/DVD player, you may need to switch this Lenovo IdeaPad 1 15 Laptop out of the Windows 11 S-Mode, 64-bit Operating System version it ships with to installed any required drivers for the external CD/DVD drive. Windows 11 S-Mode provides added security by only allowing APPs available ( and therefore certified by Microsoft) at the Microsoft Store. If you don't need the added security or you need to install APPs not available at the Microsoft Store, you can switch to standard Windows 11 Home 64-bit Operating System, at no additional cost. If you need to switch out of S-Mode for Windows 11 Home: Here is a link to instructions for switching from Windows 11 S-Mode to Windows 11 Home: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/switching-out-of-s-mode-in-windows-4f56d9be-99ec-6983-119f-031bfb28a307#WindowsVersion=Windows_11
