    I purchased a Microsoft Surface Book. The laptop is great, couldn't ask for anything better. But the one downfall has been a lack of CD drive. Purchased this, and it has proven so helpful. From watching blu-ray movies, to burning discs with photos or music. Everything has worked seamlessly.

    I bought this external drive to be able to play DVD and Blu Ray movies on my laptop. I used it to load the drivers that came on the disc with the unit. Then played a regular dvd and blu ray movie. Both movies started up and played with no problems. Very simple.

    I bought this external drive just to watch Blu-ray discs on my laptop and it works great. Easy to download the software. Virtually plug and play. Just make sure you have two USB ports next to each other.

    It is USB 2.0, BUT it utilizes TWO USB ports if you need the speed. Easy to use, and your OS will recognize it immediately.

    Very reliable and FAST drive that easily outdid my previous LG Blu-Ray drive which had run its course of usefulness. I have yet to use it to burn any discs, but ripping them has not brought about any problems.

    I was looking at several brands that were lesser known from several retailers when I found this LG Blu-Ray Drive. It was one of the cheapest available, delivered in two days and works perfectly on my iMac with really no setup.

    Bought this to replace my ten-year-old ASUS gaming laptop when it died. I'm very impressed by the improvement in both graphics and sound. I play Elder Scrolls V with all the high-end graphics mods installed, and it's awesome. Big selling points for me were the RAM expansion capability (comes with plenty at 32 GB, but that can be doubled as needed) and the spare M.2 slot for storage. Graphics card is about as good as anything currently available. This system is VR capable and should be more than capable whenever ES VI gets released. Battery only lasts about an hour when playing video, so plan on staying plugged in.

    I was a little hesitant about an LG as I was looking to get the Pioneer that ended up not being in Stock. This LG worked out great! It comes prepackaged with software, is compact and operates with little noise. I definitely recommend!

    Working fine so far. Slim profile makes it easy to store for travel. Depending on your power supply capability it may need TWO USB ports. I've been using it to watch rental movies while traveling, so I've chosen to use it with power outlets nearby to be able to charge my laptop.

    Worthwhile if you don't mind an external drive. It hums a bit as the discs are spun up, and sometimes that kinda gets in the way, but I came into this expecting that sorta thing. Still worthwhile if you don't have any other choices available to you.

    Requires 2 USB slots. 2.0 or 3.0. Type A slots. Comes with Cyber-Power disk. Worthwhile purchase. Easy to use for the most part. Installation adds some excess software, but nothing to concerning.
