Great for my needs
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When I got my recent alienware, without a drive bay I needed something to read the occasional CD devices like quicken or those that still come physical. This meet the need and since dell owns alienware I felt compfortable. its quickly discovered and works without an issue. I'm happy with the product, but have not written any discs with it yet.

Good for Laptops with no CD/DVD drive
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for use with a DELL laptop that didn't come with a CD/DVD drive. I don't use it often - mainly for installing software purchased on a disc, or burning the occasional CD/DVD. It hasn't given me any problems in 2 years. Can be a bit noisy when a disc is actually inserted and spins up.

Great budget option.

This came in really handy. Its quiet and easy to use just plug and play its that simple. If your laptop didnt come with a cd drive and u need one for your old school dvds and music cds you cant go wrong with dell.

Works like a charm!!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s a shame modern computers aren’t coming included with a cd drive anymore. That’s why I bought this. Good speed (I use it for putting music cds on my computer to save from purchasing on iTunes). It takes a few minutes for each CD but it does what I need it to do. I’m satisfied.
