    Pretty straight forward easy to use disc drive for the plethora of laptops these days that no longer have disc drive when you need one to read a disc or as a bonus on this one, need to burn something to a disc as well.

    I got Dell Notebook on Black Friday deal. But it does not have internal DVDRW drive built in. So I search it and fortunately It was on sale as well at half price. Slim size and works great with my Dell Notebook PC. I highly recommend it.

    Laptop did not have internal cd/dvd drive. BestBuy gave a great price for this external one. You only need a USB port to connect it to PC. It is very light and easy to manage. It works great. Just be careful loading the disc into the drive it can easily get stuck inside it.

    This device turns your tablet into a compact computer. I use this to watch dvds or download apps to my tablets. It hits the nail right on the head without the laptop bulk.

    Did the job. Not the fastest, but I'd probably need and internal desktop drive to get that. Considering my needs copying CD's for a few people in church who don't have new equipment at all, works fine with the enclosed software.

    I needed an external DVD drive since my laptop did not have an internal one. I ordered the Dell Slim External USB drive because it did everything that I required. It is lightweight yet solidly built, and performed well.
