    Take it out of the box, plug it into your laptop with the USB cord that's included, and it works. No muss no fuss.

    DVD player works great. Very light and almost noise free. I gave 4 stars because software that came with it wouldn't work on my HP laptop with Windows 10. I had to find and pay for my own software. Note: my fairly new laptop did not come with a player as previous Windows versions did.

    No installation required. Simply worked as soon as it was plugged into the thunder port. Excellent performance at a rock bottom price.

    The external DVD has a decent read and write speed and it functions as it supposed to. Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase and the reasonable price.

    My current laptop doesn't have a disc drive and I needed to quickly rip/burn a couple of CDs for my daughter and didn't want to pay an arm and a leg. Definitely worth the cost. Quick and quiet, too!

    I got this to use with a notebook that has no drive so I could transfer cds to iTunes. Much faster than my drive in a laptop, and well worth the money.

    I purchase two of these. And man do they work. I rip all my movies to a digital format when I get them. They run super fast and very silent.

    This is a great way to avoid throwing away a pc with no disc reader. Our stand alone system doesn’t need to connect to the internet, just read and write disc.
