Customers love the product's exceptional ease of use, strong overall performance, and attractive price point. They also appreciate its compact size, lightweight design, impressive speed, and quiet operation, along with its convenient USB-only power and broad compatibility. The only notable concern raised by customers is the requirement for separate software when using it with a Mac.

    Bought it on sale. Need to access historical financial data stored on CDs back when they were commonplace :) Worked great. Thinking of ripping some old music CDs so I can have them handy for the car without depending on streaming all the time.

    This LG - 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD+/-RW/CD-RW Drive was installed at a client's office. Their computer had NO DVD Drive at all, and it was necessary to add on this unit to be able to install DVD driven software for the office. The client has had NO issues with this unit. It is inexpensive and does the job. I HIGHLY recommend this item for others in similar circumstances.

    I really like this device. No matter how hard I try to keep up with the latest technology, I still have a few DVDs I need to review. This device is perfect. Just plug the USB cord into my laptop and it does the rest. No driver to download. I would buy it again.

    I bought this drive because my new computer would not contain a standard internal drive. I use it for burning videos mainly, and I've yet to see any issues with it (after a few weeks of usage and about 20 DVDs burned). Plug and play in both Win10 and Win11.

    At least For me best purchased ever I build my own pc and the tower I got does not have room for a DVD driver so I had to buy this one and it works great I use it to download all the old CD I had in the past in to my pc so I don’t have to pay for music and plus there are times that I had song s that you can’t find no more in less in you tube and sometimes it does not come out right
