  • QuestionWill this be able to play on my Nintendo wii so basically play wii back ups

    Asked by Wiiplayer4eva.

    • Answer You need a soft modded Wii and the right app to run backups. YouTube videos are helpful. Sometimes it is more complicated than what it is worth to keep switching out dvds and the Wii disk reader is finicky. Used an external hard drive to run backups…would go that route but it’s up to you. Not advocating piracy, and I know you said backups so I’m assuming you have the original copies- I just had to mention.

  • QuestionI want to import some photos that are on some CDs. (Not every photo on the CD)Does this device allow for that, and let you indicate where the images will be imported ton

    Asked by Shelly.

    • Answer Yes. When you plug this drive in, it will act as a partition of your hard drives, allowing you to look through the contents of the CD as if it is a folder. Think of it like that, a folder, on a disk. Once you have the CD loaded, you can browse through the folder and select/move around pictures. You may need additional software to perform certain actions, so I would do some additional research. In short though, yes, this will allow you to do those things.

  • QuestionWill this play cd's when plugging into usb of the car?

    Asked by June.

    • Answer No. Those ports are typically for either a cell phone and CarPlay or for a USB Flash drive containing files in a suitable format. Using a drive like this in a car wouldn't be a good idea even if supported as the vibrations and bumps of driving would cause skips.

  • QuestionCan this be hooked up in a car? Anything beyond plugging into USB port?

    Asked by Anonymous.

    • Answer That depends... this LG drive requires 5v power to operate. The drive is set up for a USB connection that supplies that power. So, whether it works with your existing radio system depends on what it can supply this energy and deal with the recorded signals which may be digital.
