    I was very worried about this product. It's my first time not having an internal CD/DVD drive, and this device just seemed very flimsy. But I have already put it through a lot of use and it has performed great. My only fear is that it won't be able to stand the test of time, but I'm also sure most people are not importing as much music to their computer off of CD's as I am. I have had no issues with the quality of the transfers, nor the speed. So far, I am a fan of this device and the price is fantastic.
