    If you need a simple and cheap drive, this one will do the trick. Set up was simple. I use this for my new 2-in-1 laptop that didn't have a preinstalled drive. This serves the purpose when I need it.

    A lot of new laptops don't come with an optical disc drive. My daughters have a lot of pictures and music on CDs. This solves their problem and doesn't cost an arm and a leg!

    Used this to go through old discs, worked great and as expected. I'm not using it for anything heavy, just normal use and it gets the job done for me.

    New laptop didn’t include a disc drive. This is a great, inexpensive alternative to play DVDs or install software. So far it works great.

    Easy to use and good replacement for older laptop with DVD/CD-RW that is having a harder time reading discs whether it's new or few scratches, you can always hear it seeking data and takes a long time for it to finally work. Once i installed the new LG 8x External USB 2.0, Windows recognized it and I installed the DVD game disc and it installed flawlessly, no more constant seek time. Bought two more for my other older laptops I use for local gaming.

    It took me a while to unpack it and I still didn't explore all options but ... so far I love it. Being compact it is great supplement for my laptop when I need it. Low cost is a big plus.

    My new computer doesn't have a disc drive so I picked one of these up to back up my data on to a disc. Works great. I don't play movies thru it so I cannot speak to the noise level, but I haven't noticed it when in use.
