    This product works flawlessly and is very useful since most laptops no longer include an optical drive.

    If you want to listen to watch DVD's, it's great. With Blu-ray discs, it's only mediocre at best. If you are the type of person to create a digital library of your media, pass on this. A single DVD takes at least 8 hours to back up. I don't have a built in drive on my newest laptop and was forced to buy this for school needs. I think I will be selling this and buying something much better.

    It’s too bad that portable notebook computers Don’t have video play recorders in them anymore. At least Best Buy still carries video equipment.
