    It works as expected. Nothing special. Computer did not come with a drive, so I needed to buy in order to write to disc or read programs.

    Okay the only pros I have for this product are: 1. It’s an actual plug and play external drive 2. It’s good when it works. Now, the cons are way more severe here 1. Whenever I open it, it jams halfway out so I have to realign it to be straight with my hand so it can pop open the rest of the way. It got really annoying after awhile. 2. After using it for a week, it stopped working. I thought it was my software but I bought a new different brand optical drive and it worked again perfectly so it was the drive after all. I know these days almost everything is by streaming or digital download. However there are still guys like me who like physical copies of things or still has old physical copies of stuff like CDs to play or rip. Maybe cuz of this, less attention is given to the stability of these things when constructing or even designing them now but that’s not fair. There are some things only playable in physical form and for this to happen on a $40 drive is yes, not too bad cuz it’s not expensive, but I am now using a $20 drive that’s blowing it out of the water right now in quality. I’ll never buy this garbage again. Terrible, Dell….

    Since most PC and laptops aims for the smaller and slimmer design, many don't come with an optical drive. This is exactly what I needed. It's plug and play and very easy to use.
