    This drive works just fine. It came without an assigned area. So had to assign it to area 1 USA. After plugging into a USB port it does not show in File Explorer or Drive Manager but shows in Device Manager. It will only show in File Explorer AFTER a disk is inserted. Other than that it works great. It's quiet, after inserting a disk the auto play works as expected. I had to put some velcro on the bottom of the unit...it wanted to slide all over when trying to operate the tray button, it's so lite.

    Dell external DVD drive

    My new Dell laptop does not have an internal DVD drive as do most laptops today. However, I have software on discs and music that I wanted to load on my laptop. The external drive has worked very well so far. It's small enough that I can carry it around in my computer bag if I need to.

    This is just what I needed! Great quality for the price. Instant plug & play with my Dell OptiPlex Micro 7020. First audio discs I burned sound great and error free. Totally happy with this purchase.

    There was a time when laptops came with a built-in CD player. Not anymore. I have a vast collection of CDs and having the ability to record them as mp3s onto my laptop allows me to then transfer my music to my mp3 players. I've used Dell technology for years and they have yet to let me down.

    Perfect addition for my laptop without an Optical Drive. I love the fact that this slim drive is Plug & Play. I trust the brand and it works as advertised. This allows me to have the best of both worlds- a laptop that weighs much less and I still have the ability to have an optical drive.

    My new computer doesn't have a slot for an optical drive. This external drive works well in copying my CDs to the new computer. I use iTunes for Windows rather than the software that comes with the drive. I haven't burned any MP3s onto disc yet, but I assume that will work well, too.

    Gold standard disk drive for read/write CD/DVD

    With all of the laptop manufacturers ditching CD/DVD read/write equipment from their laptop lineups, including Apple, you need this drive to read or write optical discs. This is a must have and this drive is a gold standard of how a drive should be built. Light, small, and dependable. Compatible with MAC and Windows and USB means it's going to work on anything.

    It's a great, easy to use DVD/CD burner. I needed this since neither my desktop or laptop has a CD drive. It's VERY easy to use. All you need is to plug it in. The program disc is only for third party products and is not necessary. All you need to do is plug it into your computer.

    This tiny DVD drive is exactly what I needed, Laptops and the likes don't come with DVD drives anymore, and USB plug and play version not only fills the void, it was relatively cheap. The shelf holding the DVD is a little delicate, so there is need to be careful, but other than that, you can't beat it!
