    I bought this for my new Apple desk top and love it. If I had only one complaint it would be that I just could not figure out how to eject my disk from it and nowhere on packaging or anything that comes with it does it tell you how. You do it online I found out eventually on yr PC

    I love the flexibility of having an external hard drive!. Going from a computer that had a hard drive I was tempted to buy another computer that had a hard drive but on the technology has advanced – have an external hard drive helps me bridge from one generation to the next in computing.

    Haven't used it yet! I'll just have to take my chances - it probably works great. I'm planning on buying a new computer and since I'm unhappy that Mac's now don't have Super-drives built in, I had to buy one. I used my Best Buy coupon before it expired. It was cheap - Thanks Best Buy!

    Seems well manufactured and solid. USB cable works as it should. Fired right up right out of the box. Video quality as expected for Blue Ray. Audio is very good. Installed the multiple Video management/editing apps by CyberLink included and they seem to function well though I have not used them extensively yet. CyberLink software seems to get get good reviews from the major PC mags. Have several LG made things and they all seem to be well made.
