Many appreciate its performance and quiet operation, along with the affordable price. While some users found the included software needed adjustments, the positive feedback on other features outweighs this concern.

    I bought this and got a great deal. Then I noticed it isn't USB3 - it is USB2. For my needs (mostly movie watching), this turned out ok. If you plan to read/write a lot of data, you might want to focus on a USB3 connection.

    I bought this device as a gift for someone that needed a CD/DVD/BLURAY drive for their laptop as these newer laprops or school notebooks lack drives. She has been using it a lot lately and has no complains. The only thing i noticed is the fact that it is still a USB 2.0 when almost everything is 3.0 kind of weird but overall good product

    Great product. So far so good!! We needed an external drive for a notebook computer we use with our extra TV room. I wanted something with a good rating dependability wise & performance wise and that was also nice looking. This unit fit the bill just fine on all fronts. Quick responding and attractive. I recommend it.

    My new HP laptop does not have a disc drive, so I went out and found a writer that would allow my laptop to watch movies or run programs on a disc. The setup does not take long, however it was a little confusing with different pages popping up asking the same questions I already answered. But overall great product for a great price.

    I bought this for my Macbook so I could watch the occasional Blu Ray while I travel. The package claims to be Windows and Mac compatible, but Macs won't play Blu Rays without extra software ($). It plays DVDs just fine, and it does everything I want it to since I got the software.
