I would recommend this to a friend NOT AS PICTURED
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I haven't even plugged this in yet. I'm not worried about that. What I AM fuming about is that I bought this almost specifically because it was an ASUS with A STAND! I plan on leaving this on my desktop full-time, and the stand was a very attractive option. So, imagine my irritation when I open the package and there is no stand. According to the instruction sheet, the stand comes with one model (that's EXACTLY the same otherwise) and the other doesn't. Also, powering the unit requires 2 free USB ports. FYI: NO STAND!! I am almost thinking about returning it, but we'll see.

Does not work with Windows 11
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This device came in a box with a sticker on the front that clearly says "Windows 11 Ready." But when I hook it up to my HP desktop with Windows 11, it does not work. A green light is visible on the front of the drive, so I know it is getting power, and it makes a bit of noise for a few seconds, but my system does not recognize it as a drive. It does not read the disc that I inserted. It is not listed as a drive in my directory.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendCD trasher
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sadly very poor. Bought this with great expectations, and it was a complete letdown. All I want to do is load CD's to my PC, and burn CD's....Loading no problem. Burning is pathetic. I've trashed more blank CD's because it constantly stops burning right after it starts. Keep getting error notice. No recommending from me other than stay away...bad product.
