    The DVD drive in my DEL computer stopped working so I needed an inexpensive, quick fix. I plugged it in and loaded the program that came with it and am now up and running again.

    No instructions on how to operate. Instructions with unit only went as far as hooking it up. I’ve had three meetings with Geek Squad on how to use, because company’s web site was totally useless! Selecting ‘User Guide’ and/or ‘tutorials’ , off their site , was nada. And no chat or number to call.

    The external DVD/CD drive was an effective and easy way to load software to my laptop. The UBS connection was easy and the drive functioned as expected.

    With most laptops there is no DVD drive. An external hard drive is a good solution. But since it will be only infrequently used, this product does the job at a good price. It is flimsy and not for heavy users.
