You still need a ROM drive
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I guess if all you do is social media and play games then "What's a ROM Drive?" probably applies but if you use your PC for more than this then you will probably need this. Burn a music CD, create a physical back up or have to load some software without an Internet connection...
