    Worked with little to no effort. I didn't have to install any extra software or troubleshoot anything. I have used it for several hours of active time now without any major issues.

    Gets the Job Done

    This is the cheapest (price wise) Dvd/CD drive I could find and will works great for what I need. My gaming computer does not have a disk drive or the possibility of putting one in so this made it possible for me to play disk games and watch movies. The only downside is that the cable it comes with is a little short.

    I love pictures, audiobooks, and music. I just needed more storage. I have a bad habit of crashing my computer and losing everything. Now I don't have to worry about that. I simply back everything up on this external hard drive. And I will always have them. Easy to use - a simple plugin and transfer your data or look at what you have saved.

    I purchased this when the original DVD drive in my Toshiba laptop stopped reading the disk. Solved the problem easily. Since then, I took my laptop in to the Geek Squad (on my Geek Squad service agreement), when they cleaned the computer (keys were sticking), they also got the original DVD drive working again.

    As many laptop manufactures trend to building systems without optical drives, this unit fills a need that is growing for people using software still on disks. Bought this fill such a need and it didn't disappoint me. Used it to install software on a new computer and it works flawlessly. Truly plug and play.

    Purchased a desktop computer in past few months and discovered it did not include an internal DVD/CD drive. Fortunately, I was able to continue making custom music CDs with this external player and soften my disdain for my computer manufacturer.

    Very slim and portable. Work straight out of the box. Does what it is designed to do very well with very little experience anyone should be able to use this device. I bought it out of necessity as my new laptop did not have an internal drive and this one is very portable with my laptop in my laptop bag.
