Yep it's easy to use, and nope you won't need a DVD drive -- just a working USB port.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you have Windows 10, use File History from the control panel. Select the USB drive as the storage.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.My Dell has a drive but as long as you have a usb port the drive comes with a cable, and software installed. It worked great for me. The backup software allows multiple time automatic backups.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No DVD drive is necessary. Most operating systems have a way to set up for backups and if that's what you are looking to do, I suggest you look at your operating system's capabilities for automatic backups. While portable, keep in mind that portable drives are "fan-less" so incremental backing up should be fine, but being constantly on with no ability other than to air-cool the drive, you may run into issues down the line.
