    needed a tote for new computer that doesn't have drive. Asking about new software and transferring items from old PC. Sales person offered the option. I did not come into store looking for item. But was impressed it was something I would have came back to get. Very appreciated! Great salesperson!

    I love that this exists! I love that I can preserve the music on my CDs and use them digitally. I am a music teacher with a laptop that does not have a CD player, so this has proved handy for me.

    It definitely works. It is pretty loud when you first put a disk in but quiets down when playing a dvd. It immediately played a dvd on my macbook with no installations.
