    Great DVD player that can be hooked up to computers that don’t have a CD ROM or a DVD player. Easy to use and a tremendous value.

    If your are building a PC the new age way (without a disk drive) this is just what you will need to load your operating system from disk. It is way less complicated then loading onto a USB and then installing. Worked like a charm. I have had this one for just over a year now. Used it once when I first got it and now a year later I built another Diskless PC and used it again after it sat for a year.
