Can this be used with Chromebook’s? null

Hi, there. Thanks for reaching out with your question about the LG DVD Drive (SP80NB80) model. We’re glad to help clarify things for you. While it works primarily with Windows and Mac OS, it can also be used with a Chromebook. However, there are some limitations. You can read and copy data files like documents and photos from CDs and DVDs, but playing movies directly from a DVD or music from an audio CD is not possible due to Chrome OS lacking the necessary software codecs. This unit can write data, but Chrome OS cannot burn files to a disc. To watch movies or rip music, you’ll need a different OS, like Windows or Linux. For more details, visit https://www.lg.com/us/burners-drives/lg-sp80nb80-slim-external-dvd-drive. If you need further assistance, please send us a private message @LGUSSupport. We’ll be happy to help. ^Juvy
