    I purchased this because in my work I have a chest cam. This device will help me be able to make a DVD disc to bring to court when I have to testify.

    Haven't use the player much. It works when plugged into a PC running Windows 11. It was delivered on time.

    The functions operate just fine with no issues. But unfortunately I have this hooked to an Apple and the eject button does not work for any Apple computer. You are forced to use the eject on the screen or in your program. So for my use, the eject button on the product itself is useless.

    This external DVD/CD player was the exact device that I needed because my new laptop does not have an internal DVD/CD drive. I originally purchased a drive on-line but could never get the driver to work with Windows 7. This drive works very well.

    This has been great. My reason for four stars is that it is just a little noisy when running. I’m not sure what an external disc drive should sound like, but that’s what I think. Otherwise, I am very happy with the purchase, it runs great.

    Work flawlessly in recording both CD and DVD discs and also for playing the same in replay. Installing the software provided with the drive installed easily. Glad I went with the LG product instead of the Samsung drive.

    I had to return this unit. There were certain disks that it would just not load. There was nothing special about those disks, and it would load almost of my collection (audio CDs, both commercial and those I'd burned myself). LG's customer service was excellent, but they decided it was defective and told me to return it. One other negative: there's no friction on the bottom of the case. It tended to slide around when I loaded a disk.

      Hi there. We understand your experience with the LG AP70NS50 unit and the loading issues you encountered. While we’re glad to hear that our customer service team was able to assist you, it’s important to know that the unit was deemed defective. Regarding the sliding issue, using a non-slip mat or placing the unit on a textured surface may help prevent it from moving during use You may access this link for further assistance: https://www.lg.com/us/support/contact. Please send us a private message on Social Media @LGUSSupport if you have any further questions or need assistance. We appreciate your feedback and hope to improve your experience in the future.

    Bought this dvd drive to use with my Mac Mini. Plugged it in mini found it right away, put cd in and copied to iTunes. No need to install the software that comes with it unless you want it. Drive is quiet and nice looking.Four stars is only because it’s usb 2.

    I purchased this DVD writer/player for my mac. It works perfectly. It does create some vibrations though, but I sit it on the packing foam it came with and that dampens the vibrations significantly. I would buy this one again with no hesitation.

    I have 1000 cds--my own "itunes" and previously had a "tower" with CD player in which to load to my hard drive. Nice to have this add on so I can keep my music library updated and watch good movies on my 15.6 in screen!

    This handy external portable DVD Writer suits my needs. I am able to download and write DVDs to this device. Sometimes when you purchase online in digital format it takes up a great deal of storage unless you store it in One Drive or write it to a DVD.

    The DVD drive included with my PC is a minimalist thin drive. This drive gives me greater read/write speeds and a full array of discs to use. CD/DVD, etcetera.

    I had to watch a dvd for class and unfortunately my Mac laptop did not have a CD input so I bought this LG drive and it was great for what it’s supposed to be used. The only thing that might be a drawback is that it can be noisey but it’s not too bad.
