    This was a good buy and better yet because Best Buy matched another vendor's price. Compared to the previous, lower-cost DVD drive I purchased, this one has a solid build and is smooth and quiet in operation. It is also compact and light, fits in my computer bag easily.

    This unit is very easy to use. It is a plug and play unit. It is very quiet when running. No issues inserting/ejecting discs. First disc I put in was from 2006 with photos on it. They came up in a few seconds, and I was able to transfer some easily to my Mac. I could not have been happier since I had not seen contents of the disc for 17 years.

    I am using this drive with my Lenovo laptop and it has performed flawlessly since its first connection. Takes up very little space, easy to move and organize and is also very quiet. This product is well built and sturdy. LG did a good job with this one!!!

    I purchased this for a friend who has arthritis issues and has trouble getting a disk onto the laptop style. DVD drives that are mostly available now. This drive was much easier for them as all they have to do is push the disk into the open hole like you would a cars CD player. Performance wise. It has been on par with any other small form factor. DVD drive I have used. Would definitely recommend for those with dexterity issues and have trouble with standard slim drives.

    I needed a new CD drive for my computer -- previous one (15 years+) died. This was simple, I just plugged it in to a port and it was up and running. Simple can be quite calming.

    Bought one for myself and one for a friend. easy to use (after we chatted with LG). we had an old toshiba with the press button to open and load and felt like ancient fools when the guy said "just slide it in". We replied "Huh? ". Then he texted, "Like a car stereo". We had the best laugh at ourselves.

    I needed an external drive to install some programs that didn't have software downloads available (yeah, it still happens) and this was the best out of the bunch at Best Buy. Its sleek, quiet, and is perfect for my use.

    My new laptop did not come with a DVD/CD drive. I bought this drive to load in some software programs. This drive worked perfectly, with no hitches. The drive is very light and compact and as a bonus matches the finish on my laptop.

    This is an awesome cd-r drive. It is easy to set up and use, and the price is great. I got this to use with a MacBook Air and it works great at the fraction of the cost of the Apple cd-r drive.
