    Works great for those programs or games or movies that are still on CD or DVD. Nice to have since most of the computers nowadays don't come with them installed.

    The exterior Disk drive worked seamlessly with my laptop to be able to load the software that I needed from CDs. Didn't need 120VAC. The operation was easy and intuitive.

    Most of today's labtops don't have cd drives. This portable cd drive is a godsend that gives you the power to use your CDs and DVDs without breaking a sweat.

    My new laptop did not come with a cd/dvd drive and I needed one to install software and burn cd's. It was easy to install and use and the cd/dvd burning software that came with it was a bonus.

    Bought to load SW on the new laptop that did not have a drive. A good option by the way. Don't need to lug around the drive for the life of the laptop when it will only be used for a little loading when the laptop is new. Drive works very well. Happy

    This is a great external DVD drive and very easy to use. It truly is a plug and play. It requires no external power source. The visual and audio quality is also very good.
