    Great product at a great price. Needed for laptop without a built in DVD drive. This did the job but didn't break the bank.

    I can easily can it in my purse. When I connected to my laptop I had to download a DVD app for it to play my dvds but sometimes it couldn't read my dvds. Thats the only thing I have to complain about Asus - 8x External USB 2.0 Double-Layer DVD RW/CD-RW Drive.

    I was pleased to find an external DVD drive that works with my older Mac for which Apple has no DVD drives (the internal one in the computer is broken). I was grateful to the Best Buy sales person whom I called that he researched the options and recommended this particular product as the one that would work for me.

    This is my 3rd one. I bought the other 2 at different stores depending on the promotion. Quality is great as usual. I don't even need to use 2 USB ports for it (but for some laptop you do need to do so). The drive does the job as it's supposed to do and I have never had a problem with any of them.
