    I needed a CD burner for my recording studio and a way to transfer large files from my old pc to my new workstation data. This filled my needs admirably.

    As usual I am working through a new Apple product. The sweeping motions don’t always work and moving from one sight to another seems complicated most of the time. Is nice to not have to push a button all the time.

    Cost efficient in an environment where discs are becoming extinct and no longer on laptops. It's necessary to have though with my job, so this worked well and was easy to use.

    I purchased the writer as my new laptop did not have one. I needed it for burning cd's and dvd's. It uses the USB from the laptop to power up. It does a good job however it is extremely slow. Plan on spending some time burning onto a blank DVD. It suffices for my needs.

    Decided to take the leap from cable and chose this unit to let me test the alternatives. Impressive video and audio. Hard to imagine that this is all being delivered to the set via wifi. Pleased with my choice and the experiment continues.

    This LG External Drive works great once you figure out how it works. It didn't come with an owner's manual or even a one-page instruction sheet on how to use it. Thinking that it opens like every other external DVD+RW/CD-RW drive that I have ever owned, I almost damaged it trying to open it. I had to go on you.tube and watch several videos before I found one that showed me how this thing worked. Because of this lack of customer support, I can only give this device a 3 star rating.

    Step up from a Windows based laptop! My first Apple computer. A change in operating systems that will take some getting used to, but I think it will be worth the extra effort. The only thing I didn't like, I had to buy an external CD drive. Other than that, so far so good! Lovin' it!

    The laptop is efficient and I love the way the keys light up to make it easier to type in the dark. My store experience was remarkable because my RSA was knowledgable about the different products which made it easy to pick one that met all my needs!

    I’m glad there isn't a tray on this drive, it's slot loading a tray is just another part to fail. Great drive but I'd have preferred receiving the Power DVD software instead of the editing software.

      Posted .

      Hi, Gedwardh. Thank you for reaching out about your LG LG DVD Drive (AP70NS50) model. We understand how important it is for your device to function properly, especially when you're trying to get things done quickly.

      If the unit isn’t responding, one helpful step is to ensure the USB cable is securely connected and that you're using a compatible USB port (preferably USB 2.0 or higher). Also, try connecting it to a different computer to rule out system-specific issues. you can find setup instructions and driver support here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-AP70NS50.AUSR10B. If you’d like us to take a closer look or assist further, feel free to email us at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We're here for you! ^Juvy LG

    I've always been skeptical about these things, but it was finally time to get one, considering the build we had. Very simple to plug n play, and it does its job well. Once in a while, you may to fiddle with it, but not often enough to be problematic.
