    My internal unit quit working, I saw this on sale and bought it online. Got notified it was ready for pickup and went the following day. This will be handy since it's external and I can use it on a couple of my machines.

    Super easy to use. I plugged the USB into both my MacBook Pro and PC and it was immediately identified. Loaded software on one computer and a CD album into iTunes in the Mac. Flawless.

    found an old dvd i made when i was a kid but no devices i own have a dvd player so i ran over to best buy to pick up this drive and it was a blast to the past and very much worth the small price, now i feel compelled to try making dvd's just because i can. the program it comes with is super helpful!

    Purchased a New HP Laptop which didn't come with an internal Disc Drive. Seems the majority of them now are lacking this feature! Needed to load some software on the new laptop that was on Disc and didn't want to spend a ton of money since this was going to be a one time use of the product for this purpose. The Laptop had Windows 11 installed on it. Plugged the drive in and use it to load the software with no issues at all! Very good price at BB for the drive!

    This portable drive replaces the onboard drives that computers used to provide as a matter of course. It works well as avertised.

    Dell's DVD/CD Read Write accessory works great and with its free easy to load software bundle makes it easy to copy/burn dvd's/cd's or view movies, etc.

    All you have to do is plug it into the computer and you can once again use your CD/DVD's. Small enough to fit under the monitor, but powerful enough to play any CD.

    Worked perfectly. My wife and I both have computers (2 laptops and 1 tower) without a cd/dvd drive. My wife ended up getting an older style embroidery machine that required software installed from the provided cd that wasn’t available online. The plug and play worked without any issues and my wife was able to install her software and I have been able to use on my computers back and forth without any problems.
