    I needed a good quality external dvd drive for instructional videos. After looking and discussing options with the associate I purchased this unit. It does what is advertised. Easy to set up. Comes with a basic program to read and write. I may upgrade later, for now its fine. The only draw back so far is that it is a bit noisy, especially at start up. Once it is running it smooths out and quiets down.

    This is a good drive. Flash it to unlock it’s full potential and it will be ready to go playing and scanning 4k Blurays. It isn’t quiet, but it gets the job done quickly and hasn't given given me an error yet. The only thing that would make the drive better is if they changed the cable system. It comes with a USB 2.0 micro b to dual USB a, it would be nice to see a 3.0 receptacle but it’s already fast so my main complaint is it uses a dual usb a connection for power and data so to slim the package you have to buy a usb micro b - usb which can be a challenge since most micro b - usb c use the 3.0 micro b connector

    This device works really well. I've successfully imported CDs into iTunes as well as watched a blu-ray movie on it, and it works great! Only problem is that the PowerDVD program it comes with is outdated and doesn't work very well. However it seems to work okay with Leawo, a free blu-ray player software you can get online.

    The very first thing I notice is that this drive has 2 USB 2.0 connectors on a splitter cable. On some systems it may require more power to operate. I use this on an Asus G750jw. It works fantastic. Super fast and not a sound. I have ripped and played movies with this drive. It is by far better than the stock drive that came with the laptop (which sounds like a buzz saw at full spin). I have even considered removing the stock drive from this laptop and just using this drive instead.

    This is my second of this same model. The first would no longer read blu rays. The point of this was, for me, to read blu rays and be able to burn dvd/cd. My computers around my house no longer have drives, and so the portability was a great feature for me, but the quality of this is just missing. I keep this in one location on my desk and it is plugged in to a powered USB hub so the cables see very little movement. I unplug the hub when not in use. If you are planning on traveling with this drive or moving it around a lot, I would not recommend this drive. As is, it seems to be the cheapest drive available for the features, but do not plan on this lasting a long time.

    This was exactly what I was looking for. With most Laptops missing a disc drive this was a perfect addition to my system. All the older discs that I have will play using this. The specifications are very good and the device works well. It works well with my Windows Laptop and also my Apple Macbook Pro.

    This is great for laptops that do not have DVD players. It is so hard to find DVD players built into laptops now. This works very well. It plays movies as well as blu ray. It looks very well on my monitor. It was easy to load the software for it. I have not tried burning anything on it, so I can not talk about how that works for it.
