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.

    I got this as my MacBook does not have a disc drive. I had gotten some cd’s that I wanted to upload to iTunes to have them on my iPhone. Worked perfectly and super quiet. Should have gotten this a lot sooner. Highly recommended.

    I miss having the DVD drive built into my central processing unit, but this makes a good substitute. I can also use this with my laptop computer.

    I purchased a new HP PC and it did not come with a DVD/CD Drive, it seems this is the way most new PC's are made now. Since I really dont use my drive much I decide that using a external drive would be perfect. So Far in the few time's that I've used the drive there has been no issue and works great.

    My new iMac24 computer does not come with a CD/DVD player. I have many cd’s that I used in support of my work almost daily and this (with a cable adapter) works just fine for me now that I am retired. I wish it played blu-ray discs but it doesn’t. Great value for what I want to do.

    I purchased this to copy audio CDs to my laptop. It is a well made product and connected to the laptop without difficulty. It is not as fast as the CD drive in an older desktop computer.

    I am very pleased with this purchase. So many laptops today no longer have DVD/CD players and this is an easy way to fix that problem. I haven’t used it a lot, so I don’t know long term how it will hold up, but thus far I am a happy camper.
