A:AnswerThe LG Slim Portable DVD Writer DVD Disc Playback & DVD M-DISC™ Support, Model # SP80NB80 has a USB Host interface so it connects to a laptop via the USB port. It is compatible with the Windows 10, Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, and Mac OS X Operating Systems so if your laptop is any of these operating systems then it can be used the same you would have used a built-in DVD writer had your laptop come with one...^IFV
A:AnswerYes but only the disk sent with the player as of yet and all was done while online I have yet to try offline as internet is not available where I live in rural Big Island Hawaii. Will let you know when I I try on tablet offline.
A:AnswerIt should. I just bought one for my Mac that runs El Capitan, which, correct me if I’m wrong, high sierra is above El Capitan. Works great though for what I need.
A:AnswerYeah, the sales associate tried to sell me on the thumb drives, but I couldn't agree with his logic. So, I purchased the burner, it works great, and of course there is no issue regarding permanent storage (not to mention the ridiculous cost of copying music and photos to thumb drives!).
I hope this helps!!
