Compact solution for all in one optical drive
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This will run with a USB C expansion port multiplier on a MSI Delta 15 laptop. The unit uses a dual USB cable so 2 ports next to each other or a USB extension cable for 1 plug is needed on 2 port only laptops. The unit was recognized in Windows 10 immediately and the software installed with no problems from the unit. The unit is very light weight and thin so this is not a "rugged" unit but still well built.

LG blu-ray rewriter
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.LG product has exceeds my expectations. The item was affordable and with the price match, it cost me less than $90. You can't find any blu-ray writer for that price.

A mouse is a mouse but an external blurray DVD is
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The mouses is just a mouse but the external blueray DVD drive is fantastic. It rips music CDs in about three minutes a piece and is extremely quiet to operate.

Great bang for your buck
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works pretty great! One issue is if you aren't careful it might scratch your discs. I found that if you make sure the player is on a flat surface and isn't moved it helps, and if you place the player upside down it practically has no risk.

Only one small negative
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The drive works great and plays Blu-Ray disk fine with just one of the two USB plus attached to my Dell laptop. I suspect if I were to try and burn a disk I might need to use the second USB connector to provide sufficient power. That leads to my only complaint. MY laptop like many these days only has one USB port per side and the attached cables are too short to allow connecting the disk to multiple ports on my computer without the addition of an extension cable.

Great if you watch movies on the go
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you're like me and travel often and has downtime however can't bring a standard blu ray player with you this is a great deal. Although it's pricy the quality is pretty good. If you don't travel often i'd reccomend avoiding this. I think you can burn movies onto the pc that it uses but i don't bother with that. This device uses 2 usb ports one for power and the other for data so ensure your computer has 2 usb ports on the same side of the computer to connect to. I use this pretty often and i'm sure i'll be using this device for a lifetime! 5/5 would buy another one again in a heartbeat

Good all-around device
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A good all-around external optical device. The reason it's not 5 stars is because the cord is set up to plug into 2 USB ports. New laptops only have 1 USB port per side so you can only plug in one. It seems to work fine with only 1 plugged in but I still take a star away for causing confusion by shipping with a 2 USB cord. A bit expensive though.

Handy
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I mainly use this to save old home brew DVDS to bluray. Had these in my closet for years. Saving some to HD, but for things that I don't want to trust to the nature of cheap usb drives I burn to a more stable type of storage. Watching the occasional movie on blu on my computer is nice also. The double cable is a bit of a drag but not really a bother once you get started. No problems so far

This one's top-notch ...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This one was pricier than others, but it's definitely worth it over the long run, since it has a large range of possibilities ... as well as being light & easy to use.
