“Do you need a laptop or CP to use this? Could I use my Android phone?”

1-1 of 1 Answer

• The LG - 8x External Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW SuperMulti Blade Drive - Silver Model # AP70NS50 is designed primarily as a PC and Mac optical drive. It is not officially supported for use with Android phones because the drive lacks the mobile firmware, specific file management apps, and the required cable interfaces. The drive draws more power than an Android phone's USB port can output. You would need to power it using an external power bank or a powered USB hub. The companion apps (such as Disc Link Platinum) are only supported on select specialized mobile-compatible drives, not on standard PC models like the AP70NS50. Even if you supply external power and connect via a USB On-The-Go (OTG) adapter, the phone's operating system will likely not recognize the DVD/CD file structure without proper driver support...^Ivan.
