    Sometimes you need a CD/DVD burner/reader. Small and compact, this does the job. Just plug in and use. All powered over USB, so once plugged in you're set. Reads and writes with no issues. Windows has everything for it to work.

    More and more pc's and laptops are coming without dvd drives built in, so this is a helpful device. It is plug and play with the included usb cable. It feels a bit flimsy and it is a bit loud, but those are trade-offs for its compact size, which is not much bigger than a dvd itself.

    Works well with both my data and music CD/DVDs. I've missed having a built-in drive since I got a new laptop, but this gets the job done at a reasonable price.

    I needed a disc drive to help show movies to my kids in school. Since COVID the students start off in my class room, and I need to play a movie so that I can focus on preparing for that day's classes. Now that computers no longer have disc drives, this is exactly what I needed. It is super light weight and easy to add to my school bag.
