    Easy to use, worked well. Down side is that it uses 2 USB ports. I used it to burn videos on to 50 GB M-DISCS.

    Very noisy when spinning up no external power supply. I recently changed PC cases and got one without ports for an internal optical drive so I tried one of these but found it lacking for my taste so I returned it. I think this would be a great drive paired with a laptop but ended up buying an external optical drive enclosure to use my old old optical drive.

    Use it on my Mac and it works great! Doesn't take up a bunch of space, but is slower than a desktop version, but that is to be expected. Either way, It is exactly what I needed.

    Lightweight and easy to install. Only drawback was that it uses 2 USB ports so if you have limited ports this could be an issue.

    I bought this to add a DVD/Blu Ray drive to my macbook pro. After searching for a program to read the player, I can now rip DVDs and Blurays to my mac and also watch movies when needed. Its quick and easy to use.
