    Got this DVD/CD drive because the Chromebook and an old Netbook came without optical drives. Also got it because one of the manufacturer installed software items in the Win7 tower turned the burner into a ROM drive. The slim profile and the drive getting all its power from the USB connection were a clincher for me. Using it was as simple as plugging it into an available USB port and waiting for the op system to recognize it. It has done all that I wanted it to do.

    Worked without issue on my Mac Air and my Win 10 machine. I also have my PC dual booted with Ubuntu. It worked just fine. On all three operating system it was a simple Plug-and-Play. Quality seems to be good although I would not drop kick it across the room and expect it to keep running. Handle with care and it should last.

    Easy to pack in my travel bag and very light. Most new laptops come with no DVD/CD drive, and since I export to disks a lot, this drive works great.
