    Nice external disc drive. With fewer and fewer laptops coming with optical drives, nice to have an external one on hand. This one works as needed.

    I will add to the warnings that you need two close by USB drives to use this drive for Blu-Rays; per the instructions you only need on USB for playing DVD but I have not tried this. Was able to play Blu-Ray, but the main challenge is to find the program for Windows to play Blu-Ray, keep that in mind that this drive only solves half the problem.
