    Even though I don't have a lot of use for CD's anymore, I still want to watch a DVD on occasion and my new laptop (ultrabook ) didn't have a DVD/CD drive. This was the perfect solution and it's so portable I can take it with me whenever I expect to be out for a while with free time.

    The new laptops do not have a DVD drive, I have some original software in Cds and Dvds, so I was needing this. It works perfectly with different laptops brands, just plug it and it works, it was not necessary for me to download any software.

    This thing is amazing! It is literally plug-and-play. My Windows 10 laptop found it right away and it works perfectly. Considering it's an external drive, it runs pretty fast, too. I'm very happy with my purchase and would recommend this drive to anyone needing an external DVD.

    I bought this for a computer I built that didn't have a slot for an optical drive. I won't be needing to read or write to disks very often, but when I do this will do just fine. I've used it to install a couple drivers and some software and it worked perfectly.

    This DVD/CD External drive is awesome and exactly what we needed. Our new computer has no DVD/CD drive and it works great so we can still use CD's to install software.

    I bought this to go with my new computer (which didn't have a CD/DVD RW drive). The LG works great! I don't need it very often, so I didn't want to spend a lot of money. I haven't had it very long, but it's worked just fine whenever I've used it.

    I needed an external CD drive because my new laptop did not come with an internal cd-dvd disc drive. I decided to purchase the LG - 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive because it was available at a good price and seemed to provide the basics of what I needed. I've used it several times, and thus far it works fine.
