    I like this product. My new computer does not have a disc drive so I had to purchase this to look at my discs or play music while I am on the computer.

    This is a great little product. If you're looking for something reasonably priced and reliable, I don't think you could go wrong. It's nice that it's plug and play as my and the husband's computer skills are a bit rusty.

    It's a great, easy to use DVD/CD burner. I needed this since neither my desktop or laptop has a CD drive. It's VERY easy to use. All you need is to plug it in. The program disc is only for third party products and is not necessary. All you need to do is plug it into your computer.

    With all of the laptop manufacturers ditching CD/DVD read/write equipment from their laptop lineups, including Apple, you need this drive to read or write optical discs. This is a must have and this drive is a gold standard of how a drive should be built. Light, small, and dependable. Compatible with MAC and Windows and USB means it's going to work on anything.

    New computers don't come with a DVD drive or VGA connections. I have the need for both but these products add to the cost. It did fill the need.

    Purchased this Dell USB DVD+/-RW drive as an accessory for my new Dell Laptop to play movies and to burn backup files. Installation was very simple, just plug & play. Unit is very lightweight & compact. Easy to store. Have only used for a few weeks, so far it reads CDs and DVDs just fine. Would purchase again.

    It was quite easy to get up and running so I could use some of my CDs which is why I bought it. Also if I buy some program now I can just load it on the DVD player and get it onto my computer. It was reasonably priced the only thing is that it doesn’t play Blu-ray but that’s fine
