    Works but flawed

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This Asus DVD drive is cheap and functional, but it also developed a quirk pretty early on. When my Windows 10 computer is sleeping, the drive will occasionally wake up independently, make mechanical noises, and flash its LED as if a disc is inside, even though none is. It's a bunch of sound and fury, signifying nothing -- and a sign that something's wrong. Asus customer support has made little effort to help.

      Dear CrunchyCookie,

      We sincerely apologize for the issues you've faced with the DVD Drive and for the inconvenience caused. This is not the kind of quality to expect from ASUS products and it's not the norm. At ASUS, we take quality control, testing, and inspections seriously to ensure our products meet high standards. What you've experienced was not intentional or representative of our brand. The decision to make a purchase can be important, and we want to ensure that our customers receive the best products and services.

      We would like to make your experience with ASUS a better one. Please send us an email at [email protected] and include the case number "N2408020199-0001" as a reference so that we can further investigate this issue.

    The BB website says it is Mac compatible, but it isn't. If you want cables, that's extra. Seriously, no cables. Tech support is awful. I'm going to go to the Apple Store instead. They have some nerve selling this.

      Dear Sebastian D,

      On behalf of ASUS and the reseller, we would like to apologize for the misinformation about the device specifications. This is not the quality of service we aim to provide, and it's not representative of our brand. Customer satisfaction is our top priority, and we strive to make every purchase an enjoyable one. As a result, we will do everything to ensure that this does not happen again.

      In reviewing the device specification, we found that the Optical Drive is only compatible with Windows. If you are still within the window, we recommend contacting the place of purchase for an exchange or return. Please rest assured that if you are unable to gain resolution when contacting the place of purchase, we will be glad to provide further assistance.

      We stand behind our products and continuously strive to improve our products and processes to achieve customer service excellence. For more information, email us at [email protected] and include the case number "N2203038100-0003" as a reference. We will do our best to resolve your case quickly. Your feedback is very important to us and enables us to improve our support channels. Thank you for choosing ASUS.
