    Compact solution for all in one optical drive

    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.

    Just what I needed. Much cheaper than adding a Blu-ray player to my PC and gives me the freedom to use it with desktop or laptop.

    A little loud, but not too much. Works as intended, but just be sure your computer has the correct USB ports.

    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.

    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
