Customers are saying

Customers have good things to say about the 8x External USB 2.0 Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive's ease of use, compact size, and affordability. Many appreciate its compatibility with various operating systems and its lightweight design, finding it performs well for its size. While some noted a slightly higher noise level than expected, the positive feedback on performance and ease of use outweighs this minor drawback.

    The DVD driver works smoothly with my mac. I don't burn any disc yet, so I cannot review about fastness of the player; however, it is quiet, and good for budget buyers.

    Nowadays, the need for an optical d\rive is virtually nonexistent, but there are always those exceptions. This drive looks and workks great with my Macbook Pro, couldn't ask for much more.

    My internal DVD drive stopped working, and it seemed cheaper and easier to replace with an external one. This had good reviews, was fairly inexpensive and seems to do the job well. Left off one star because I haven't had it long enough for problems to show up.

    This DVD drive was the cheapest one I could find. It works, but is a little slow and skippy. It also has problems playing slightly scratched discs that my other computer and playstation can play with no problem. It's also a bit loud. I only use it when I have to. It's not bad for the price, but if you can afford a better one, I would suggest you choose something else.
