    This product works great. I had no clue that laptops didn’t come w/a cd drive anymore. Weird. Highly recommend this product.

    The DVD drive has great functionality and portability. The included disc links an old driver page that is no longer active. If using windows 10 computer don't have to worry about installing any additional drivers.

    This external cd drive does the exact job it was created for, and does not bring error, at least nt yet lol. I would recommend this to anyone that needs one, like my pc since the build didnt fit an internal cd drive. Plus, Acer brand is the way to go!

    Bought this to go with an Asus Tuf gaming laptop. Had a few older games that were on disc that needed to be installed. Complete plus and play. This drive needs to be connected to 2 USB ports to work properly. I have watched DVD’s on the laptop with this with zero problems. It also quickly downloads games to the laptop. No complaints whatsoever.

    Since most competing devices, do not come with a DVD RW Drive, this particular one is easy to use. Just plug it in and you’re ready to go play your favorite movies. Since Microsoft doesn’t includes the CODEX to play DVD movies, download the open source VLC media player.

    Since laptops these days have no built in drive this external DVD has come in very useful. It is faster to install a software program with a CD than it is to download from a website.
