    My dad was looking for a Reader/Writer to use to transfer some of his old CD's to his PC, and since I already owned this and really liked it, I bought it for my dad as an early birthday gift, and so far he loves it!

    I guess it works well, but I was not informed by Best Buy Representative that ordered it for me, that it two USB ports to work, that is not good for a computer I bought from Best Buy also that only has two USB ports, he told me it had more ports. But the external drive works well once I got it hooked up. Just be advised everyone.
