    Nice size and easy to install. Works across devices. Will need to buy USB C adapter if needed as this is older style connector.

    CDs and DVDs are now legacy media and many new computers don't have optical drives--if you don't need Bluray, this unit is an affordable solution.

    The Dell DVD/CD burner worked very well when I needed to burn music to my computer as most laptops do not have a dvd drive anymore. Worked great! I also put in a non-blu ray movie and again worked well. No issues!
