    Works great! Only issue was finding a free app on my laptop to play the dvds I was trying to play. Besides that I haven’t had any issues and have loved the feeling of watching dvds.

    I bought this external drive since my new laptop did not come with an on board drive. It connected and worked great with no issues and installed the software I needed. I have not used it as a writer at this time. All in all it seems to work well for what it is but even at the lowest cost it was still a bit high for an external drive.

    Excellent optical drive. Takes up very little space on my desk, and affords very good data access speeds and burns quickly.

    I didn't have enough USB ports on my computer to perform the new project. Otherwise, the Dell Slim DVD+/-RW Drive would have been perfect.
