It does what you need it to do and is compatible.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This drive works wonderfully. It works on Windows 10 and 11, and is a simple as plugging into the USB port and it just works. The only downside is forgetting how long discs actually take to load after being used to downloading on to an SSD.

External CD Drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I just recently purchased a Dell all-in-one and the new computer does not have a drive so I purchased this one. Not for work but for pleasure. I have an immense CD collection and the old all-in-one does work well anymore so the Dell External drive is great. Easy to use and was inexpensive.

If you need an optical drive this is pretty good.
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There isn't much to say about the Dell-USB Slim DVD+/-RW Drive. If you need an optical drive this will work very well. It's pretty much plug-and-play and works well.

Decent for the price.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to buy this as I made a mistake and bought my son a laptop a few years ago without a CD player. This makes a big difference when we are traveling. Future reference CD/DVD players are required on all future computer purchases. It also now gives me a way to externally boot up systems when down (allowed me to recover an older laptop that had issues that caused the BIOS to corrupt and was not able to recover with the restore disk at the time.

A Must Have for Old Schoolers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My Dell external CD/DVD drive is a very convenient device for CD users. I bought my first drive to replace the faulty internal drive on an older laptop. The Dell is used on my newer Acer that doesn't have a CD/DVD drive. It's great for Old Schoolers who still use CDs. It's also good for viewing DVDs and sharing music and files.
