Just bought it two days ago. Have been using it once in a while. Connection & disconnection were very easy. And the reading speed was acceptable. Haven’t tried burning any CD/DVD with it yet. One thing though: the software that came along in the box (CyberLink Media Suite 12) couldn’t be installed on Win 10. Pity.

It works really well, but seems a bit flimsy. Not sure how long it will last, but for the price, it's doing it's job very well.

I got this drive just in case I need to load software onto my laptop, or play a DVD on it. It does what it's supposed to do, and seems sturdy.

Very nice drive, serves its purpose. Using USB does limit its performance though. I use it for backup disks so it definitely serves its purpose well.

Bought sonI could load programs I purchased on to a lap top. Works but slower than loading on my desk top. Had Samsung that quit after 6 months. Hopefully this will last longer.
