    So if you get one of those new computers that no longer has a disc drive, this is where you go and what you buy to get the updated external CD reader you need!

    Modern desktops are coming without disc drives nowadays, and occasionally some of us need to read a disc. This was a great deal on sale and did the job perfectly.

    For the price it's a good deal, a bit on the slow side during install but is well worth the money paid for it.

    New la[tops are not made with CD ROM drives. This accessory gives you a CD ROM drive for CD's, older programs or anything you use in a CD format. Works real well. I am very happy with it.
