Customer Ratings & Reviews

I haven't had any issues with this drive. It is reliable.

Have not used drive yet, but $25 to have a DVD drive capable laptop with read and write function, as well as portability, will be useful. It is nearly impossible to find a contemporary laptop with a DVD drive. All on a 11th gen Intel i7 with graphics GPU....no brainer!

Bought this so that I could download software from a disc on my tablet. Don't forget any adapter cables that you may need to make this work for your situation

This was the perfect thing for me I have a dell laptop that does not have a CD drive and this was on sale and works really well. I was able to rip Cd's to my computer and use it to add software as well all around a good product. it works fast to.

Since computers dont have cd drive need one for home had portable 4 laptop but needed one 4 home works great easy to use and store Rarely needed but is easier to have one at home and one in briefcase

This disk drive is fast and efficient. Putting in a disc and pushing down feels like it might snap the tray in two, but hasn't yet. This is my first external cd drive, so maybe they all feel this way.

Unless I'm missing something it doesn't play movie DVD's

IT WORKS WELL I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS THE GOOD THING IS IT RECOGNIZES WHAT TYPE OF DISC YOU INSERTED AND GIVES YOU THE RIGHT OPTIONS TO PLAY.

This was purchased to give my step great-grandson's new solid state drive laptop the ability to play DVDs. The peripheral works very well with the Dell touchscreen laptop.

I could not find my old dvd/rw drive so I bought this one. As usual a few months later I found my older one

I was worried when my laptop did not have a CD drive. However, it did have everything else I wanted. So I bought the Dell - 8x External USB DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive. It works perfect and I am very pleased with it!

It works fine with my new Lenovo Yoga laptop. The newer computers do not come with dvd or cd drives. This plug in play drive was just what I was needing and at a great price.

Normally, I would do a lot research before making a purchase like this, but I was pressed for time. I was a little concerned about compatibility, but the setup was quick and easy and so far every thing works as it should. However, I will say that I have not yet burned a DVD or CD as of yet and for that reason I can not give this device a 5 star rating.

Needed external DVD reader/writer since PC desktops are following Apple and eliminating built in on higher end models. I still need to occasionally install an older program or write some files. The Dell was a perfect fit to the Dell I notebook I had recently purchased.

Solidly built, easy plug/play. Great replacement for competitor's model that failed.

No issues as far as I know. The device seems to work as advertised.

Very useful. We needed to have our main computer repaired and wanted to make sure we had all of our data backed up in case the computer had to be reset to factory settings.

I have now a way to finally play music on my MacBook! Wonderful.

This Dell - USB Slim DVD+/- RW Drive is easy to use and does the job it was intended to do. I initially got it to play CDs, which it does nicely. It's slim and lightweight which makes it easy to travel with.

So far so good, does everything I expected. Would recommend to anyone needing an external DVD+/-RW drive.
