An excellent accessory
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was able to use this without any trouble for transferring a few music CD's to my computer, as well as playing a few. I haven't tried a DVD yet, but I assume that also will work well. This is a must, now that computers do not include a CD/DVD tray.

XXXXX
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No doubt this is a good product, thru a miss understanding about what I needed, I came home with something I could not use. The miss understanding was no doubt my fault, as I didn't fully explain I needed a cd reader as well, The return was great, no problem at all, exchanged for an LG product, which I am very happy with. Thank you Best Buy

Great addition to any system
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No need to pay a premium for larger storage models of a desktop or laptop, which can add to the price of those machines dramatically. I bought this to house my Apple Photos library on a Mac Mini system. I load several hundred gigabytes of photos linked to iCloud and don't have to take up room in the flash storage of the Mac mini. This way, I also have full size files for easy editing and viewing, etc. I do this for my home and office systems and also my laptop, although because laptops are (usually) always being moved about and turned off and on, an external drive for photos can be an issue sometimes, in that the system seems to occasionally need to reindex the library. But for photos, this is a no brainer if you need more storage.

Cheap problem solver
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.You need one of these if you purchased the Inspiron 3880 with the solid state hard drive and have games or music on disks. Although it looks like there is a built in drive, it has none. I hooked the external drive up and in a matter of minutes I was all set. Cheap, plugs into USB, solves problem.
