Customer Ratings & Reviews

I priced the Apple Superdrive USB and this model. This one was HANDS DOWN the better deal. Cheaper, attractive, easy to use, and operates IDENTICALLY. BestBuy needs to more actively promote this item since all iMac models no longer come with built in superdrives

DVDs and CDs are becoming obsolete except for those few nostalgic users who keep them around. Not to mention corporations/companies who still use them for transferring/submitting data. This external is perfect for on the go laptop users.

The cdr works with my apple macbook pro, which is what I needed it for ,so I am happy with it so far. It looked like it had an aluminum case but only plastic.

I especially like the portability and convenience of the player although I did have an issue when initially trying to play back a dvd. The Geek squad quickly resolved the issue and I have had no further problems.

Good dvd driver to load programmes from disc to laptop, as newer laptops do not generally include built in dvd drives with the move to solid state technology.

This is a great CD drive. it's light and affordable. Best part is that is plug and play. No need to updates.

Chose this one on recommendation from employee (one that sold me my new laptop) ... if Windows 8 doesn't play DVD movies I am not sure why employee didn't alert me of this issue. Is easy to set up, and is very light weight.

This is a great drive! It works on both my wife's HP Windows 8 Laptop, as well as my Macbook Air. It's fast, light, and quiet.

This is the only one that would work for my Dell laptop. It was well worth the money. I can watch DVDs. Transfer files to a CD and play CDs without any problems. Great product!

Item is great. Owned previously similar model for 3 years. I used it to install operating systems and drivers during travle. Does not need power cord and used power from usb

Have only used the disk drive once since getting my new iMac, but seemed to work fine when I used it; still have some more music CD's to load into iTunes, so I will see how it goes, but so far, so good!

With the new MacBook Air which no longer comes with a DVD drive, I still wanted the ability to play DVD's and CD's. This unit is perfect--great quality and compact size. Love it!

The laptop I purchased didn’t come with a dvd drive. This was a great addition and I was able to use the discs I needed to use

Bought this DVD player for my MacBook. So I could watch DVDs when hubby was watching wrestling. Love it. Works great and no issues

Really fast compared to what I had before, but I'm not sure if it's due to the new computer or this new drive or maybe the combination of both.

The LG USB Ext. cd_rw delivers. It is easy to connect and get online in minutes. The speed is very good considering it is attached to my iMac usb 2.0 port.

Had to find portable cd drive for my new computer. This one was priced right & had good track record. Been very happy with it.

Great product for when the need requires for double layer double sided DVD's. No complaints with this device, its great!!

My wife's laptop did not have a cd/dvd drive, so I picked this one up for her. Works great, no installation involved, just plug and play.

Needed an external drive for transferring music and pictures on CD’s to my computer. This works very well and at a good price.
