Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased this to view some photo CD's I have had for some time. It works great.

Don't use it often but it connects to my Dell Latitude 5290 2-in-1 easily and works just like it supposed to work. Nice smell and compact and fits nicely in laptop sleeve for easy transportation.

This DVD slim external portable DVD drive is great. It’s portable and totally fits my needs. It operates extremely well. I highly recommend owning one.

Very happy with this purchase. Worked perfectly setting up my printer.

Easy to set up and use, did the job well. I needed to reinstall my HP Printer in my new laptop and the old one I had wouldn't work on Windows 11. This did the job!

The perfect addition for my brand new Dell laptop. The DW316 has a sleek design and provides the much needed ability to write to an external disk for transport of information from one place to another or for long term storage. Best Buy made it very inexpensive to own.

Good quality for the price , simple and very easy to use.

Easy to install. Works great with HP pavilion laptop purchased together. Bought for occasional use. not expensive. Lightweight. Slim.

Very easy to operate. Nice, compact, good. And the price is not high. Very affordable.

Great Drive! Works flawlessly. You can buy one and use it on all of your devices. Plug it into any usb port on any device and that is it!

After a couple of months of researching for a cheap external DVD drive for my laptop I opted for this model. There are mixed reviews as with any electronic device. I haven't had any problem with it but on the safe side I purchased the Geek Squad protection plan just in case. I've only played DVDs on it and it works fine with a DELL laptop running Windows 10. I'm using VLC for the media player and my operating system is running the latest patches (updates). To answer a question I saw for this product, when I insert the DVD it'll automatically launch my media player (VLC). Every computer will react differently due to the personal settings that you have configured for it.

very pleased with the product. I was able to accomplish my desired objective when I connected this product to my computer.

I am old school, was not enthused to see laptops did not contain disc drives. I have a dvd collection of titles not generally found on the streaming services. This dvd drive is the best solution to my dilemma. I have used this drive quite a bit since getting it and I am very satisfied with it's performance. I have not tried ripping or burning with this device yet, but very happy with the playback of my commercial dvd recordings. It is very compatible with my new laptop, the only drawback is it is a little hard to manage sitting in my lounging chair. I may attach some velcro to my laptop to help keep it in place.

I needed an external drive and this was perfect for what I needed it to do. It's good for CDs and playing games. It's plug and Play. You don't have to install any bloatware or anything. If your computer doesn't have a DVD drive, it's a good addition. The price was too good to pass up.

Super easy to use, works quickly and quietly . Small.

I needed a DVD drive for my Lenovo laptop to load the TurboTax disc and figured it would also be handy to have to access the many photos I have on DVDs. I didn't want to spend a fortune for something that would only be used intermittently. This was basically plug and play, with no complications whatever, and at a good price. I ordered online, picked up at the store and was able to start working on my taxes the same day.

This product was really easy to set up and use. Just had to plug it into my computer and install the software to use it.

Good produce, works well for what I needed it for.

The Dell DW316 DVD/CD-RW External Drive purchased is user friendly and most of all price competitive compared to other similar products.

Easy set up and works great. It was at great price
