    The LG Blu-ray player worked flawlessly and was installed rapidly and without difficulty by my Surface - I take it with my Surface traveling and it allows me to watch movies if desired and burn discs as needed.

    Purchased this external hard drive for Surface Pro 4. I read a number of reviews and couldn't find much in the way of a USB 3.0 or higher at a reasonable price. This product said 2.0 and 3.0 compatible and indicated there reduced speed for 3.0. We haven't noticed any negative impact. There were a variety of options for storage, but not much for CDs. We are not using this for storage yet, but it is used daily for text book companion CDs and books on tape. Slim design and smooth playing/no skips.

    Works great! It is lightweight and easy to use. Potential downsides: the cable it comes with is slightly confusing (it has two USB heads?), and the instructions aren't clear or detailed. You can pretty much figure out how it works, but still. However, the software it comes with is super quick to install and from there, it is easy to use.

    Great player if you’re looking to play BluRays & DVD’s. I have not tried to burn anything yet. It’s a bit noisy & shaky. I’m glad it worked on my old Gateway.

    I've relied upon my built-in Super Drive on my iMac for all of my DVD & CD needs, and have never really thought about Blu-Ray until I wanted to start backing up my discs. So I did some research and price comparisons before landing on this little amazing machine. It doesn't get any easier: plug and go! I use Handbrake (there's great instructions out there on how to make it "see" your BR discs) and it works like a charm. The unit is plastic but incredibly small and solid feeling. The eject button is a bit small (my only issue) but I also have large hands / fingers.

    This was an inexpensive and easy way to add a Blu-Ray disk player to my new computer. It was very easy to install this device. The only trick I ran into was that an HDMI connection to the monitor was needed to play Blu-Ray disks on the computer. My monitor had an old VGA cable to attach to the computer and I needed to change this for an HDMI cable. Once I made this upgrade, the External Blu-Ray device worked great. I'm glad I added this to my computer.
