    At the price, what could go wrong. I needed to burn CD's. This unit worked perfectly, without any training. All of the process is intuitive.

    Got this to back up some old videos I have on my computer. Works great easy set up. Plug and play I'm using it with my Alienware 15 laptop copies a full dvd in 22 min. But for $39 that's not bad.

    Comes in very handy since most computers do not have CD/DVD drives any more. Since they probably won't do that anymore, I'm very happy to be able to buy one and use it for my work.
