    I bought it mainly to install some software on an old PC that doesn't have an internal DVD drive. It did the job for me. I'd definitely recommend this drive to a friend.

    It did exactly what I needed it to do. It was plug and play with no hassles. Tried to play a Blu-ray disc, but unfortunately it is not Blu-ray compatible. Other than that, it is the perfect extension to a computer which has no CD drive.
