Worked for me
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Product took a bit to figure out at the instructions only indicated to plug and play. After a few unsuccessful attempts of trying to run the disc I wanted, I used the disk that came with the unit and thereafter everything downloaded fine.

OK USB DVD drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The separate USB cable is awkward and much bigger than necessary. It would be much better with a small, attached, recessed cable like on some HP drives. It works just fine though.
