    This peripheral does what it's supposed to do. It's great for installing my vintage PC games on my modern laptop, but I am not going to try watching a movie through it. It was a fair price, and I'm glad I bought it.

    I have a Mac Book Pro and an iMac. I'm always reluctant to use non-Apple products with either. The Best Buy guys said they used the LG drive with their Mac without any problems. So I thought I can always bring it back if it doesn't. Thus far I have copied photos to 4 CD's using the LD DVR without any problems. More photo's to burn.

    Plays DVD's & CD's

    It plays/rips DVD's & CD's. Since most, if not all of the better SSD laptops no longer include a disk drive - it's necessary if you still have physical media you would like to access. Build quality seems average not stellar but not extremely cheap either. It works, if you do not need blu-ray for your tablet/laptop buy this. I believe it also writes CD's & DVD's.

    Bought with new Lenovo Yoga 710 that has no Optical Drive. Included software allows you to read and write files to media but, does not allow you to watch DVD movies without paying for software upgrade. After researching online found recoumended free app to be able to watch DVD movies. Wish Windows 10 new install still had Media viewer. Hardware build quality seems good. Would have liked included software to allow DVD movie viewing!

    I was able to install this on my new laptop. So far I haven’t been able to install or use it on my wife’s new desktop computer. I thought I should be able to use it between two different devices by just plugging it in and installing the software for each. Not sure why it’s not allowing me to?

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    It works. I give excellent for the reason it was cheap. It does play movies or loads programs. I needed a drive in a hurry. Grabbed this one,and it does what it is supposed to do. I do think it loads slower than main drive in computer. But it was not working at the time I bought this. Good for emergency use or if you need extra drive.
