    I only gave it four stars because I don't really see much difference between one drive and the next. Nothing negative about it to say. The price was good.

    Needed an external CD drive for my Ultrabook, so I could install Windows 10. Did the job after messing with a USB flash drive for hours with no success.

    This is my first All-in-one, like it so far. It is quick, boots up fast, hard drive response is very good. Only negative is the screen reflects in bright light conditions.

    This device was purchased as an ad-on for a laptop with no DVD drive. It functions well in that capacity; however, the installation disc that accompanied it was loaded with four programs it wanted to install on my computer. When I declined to install a couple of those programs, I keep getting notifications that this device isn't finished installing. I thought that was a bit much!

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
