  • QuestionWill this allow me to download to my computer Word documents that have been saved to a CD? Excel documents? Thank you.

    Asked by SeaportKaren.

    • Answer The main difference between this LG Slim Portable DVD Writer DVD Disc Playback & DVD M-DISC™ Support, Model # SP80NB80 and a drive that comes installed on a PC or laptop is that one is internal while this unit is an external device that connects to your computer via the USB ports. You can download word documents or excel documents that have been saved on a CD to your computer the same way you would if you had an optical drive installed in your computer. Just find the drive on your computer, open it, select the documents you want to transfer or copy to your computer, choose a file or where on your computer you want to save the selected documents to and you're done!...^IFV

    Asked by pkt.

    • Answer Well it all depends on the software you are using on your computer. Any of the external cd/dvd drives are devices only and do not come with a software. If you have a software then yes. If not you can always buy or get free software for that depending on what quality you're looking for.
