    I bought this LG DVD player as a replacement for my built-in dvd PC player (Toshiba, 2008). This works great for installing software from external DVD’s to my windows PC. The price was reasonable, it was easy to install, and I had no problems in installing programs from any DVD to my PC (i.e. turbo tax, Paint Shop Pro).

    This was purchased to replace an older 5 1/4 internal dvd burner. Don't let the small size fool you. It reads and writes many types of discs. It is powered by the USB cable, so no extra power brick. My pc's have high watt psu's so i have no problem powering it thru the usb cable.

    Needed a DVD drive for burning my music CDs. Tried a couple of different ones from Amazon that were not that good. Got this one from Best Buy on sale, for a name brand unit, and it works great. No problems at all.

    I bought this so I could watch DVDs on my laptop. It works really well and is super easy to use. I just plug it in, put the dvd in and it starts playing (using VLC media player). It makes a little bit of noise and it can get somewhat hot depending on how long you use it, but I haven’t had any issues with it.

    I primarily use this LG drive to burn ISO image files from a windows 10 computer to both DVD and CD disks. It reads and writes perfectly without any problems and is perfect for packing in a laptop case. The provided USB cable is all it needs to work. I bought one for my desktop and my laptop. Good product.

    Looks small, fragile and light weight, but it works. I've watched several DVDs on my laptop without any problems. Hope it travels well, because I want to take it on vacation.

    This is a valuable tool since the new laptops do not have CD/DVD players and I still have some CD and DVD I would like to watch at times.Easy to connect and portable so I can use it on various other devices easily.I am glad I picked it up before winter so I can use it during the colder months when I would not be outside.
