    I bought this for my husband so he can listen and watch his guitar course on it. He loves it. Now he can watch all his movies on it too.

    I love how sleek this drive is. It connected right to my desktop and ran flawlessly, it didn't even get really hot with long use. Glad I decided to try it out.

    So far the separate drive works great !!! If it were attached to PC and became unusable, the external is available. But, I purchased a computer without optical drive just for that reason.

    Perfect way to have a DVD and CD reader since most new computers (especially laptops) don't have one. This way I can download all my old music that are on CDs

    Since my new Mac Pro computer doesn't have a CD slot I had to buy this portable unit. It works as well as an included CD player and is small enough to take with in a back pack.

    I wish laptops still came standard with the dvd/cd drive, but since they dont, these plug in drives are the next best thing! Plug and play. Works perfectly

    EXCELLENT PRODUCT. I CAN NOW WATCH DVD'S ON THIS DRIVER THAT WON'T PLAY ON MY COMPUTER. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH THE PRODUCT. I AM SO GRATIFIED WITH THE GEEK SQUAD FROM THE BEST BUY PROGRAM IN ASSISTING ME ON LINE WITH DOWN LOADING THE DRIVE. THE AGENT WAS TREMENDOUSLY CO-OPERATIVE AND KNOWLEGDABLE AND PATIENT. HE IS A GREAT ASSET TO THE BEST BUY CORPORATION. THE AGENTS WITH THE BEST BUY PROGRAM HAVE ALWAYS BEEN PROFESSIONAL, EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGABLE AND VERY COURTEOUS WHENEVER I HAVE NEEDED THEIR EXPERTISE OVER THE YEARS WHEN IT COMES TO SOLVING PC ISSUES OR INSTALLING PROGRAMS FOR ME. THANKS A LOT. YOU FOLKS ARE THE BEST!
