    I purchased this since my new gaming computer did not have a CD/DVD drive, nor a open space to install one internally. Just plug in the USB cable provided and it's ready to go. Great for playing my music cd's and DVD movies. Powers up through the USB cable. Very portable to use elsewhere.

    This drive works perfectly, runs very quiet and works great with my Surface Studio with the simple use of a USB converter also purchased from Best Buy a couple years ago. Worth every penny.

    It is great that this disc drive does not need it's own power source. It gets its power through the USB connection to the computer. I refrain from giving it five stars only because I haven't had it long enough to use it extensively. It may deserve five stars. Really retailers should ask for the reviews some substantial time after the purchase. I would just suggest that since TV connectivity is advertised, a little longer USB cable would be helpful to reach the ports in the back of a TV.
