    A necessity since the new computers no longer have built-in DVD-CD's drives. Not happy about having all these extra accessories all over my workspace. The product itself works great.

    I appreciate the sleekness, square design/edges, and light weight of the device. Capable of being connected to my new laptop WITHOUT the need for manually installing software with the provided CD was definitely a bonus.

    This is a great addition to my husband’s laptop which does not have an internal dvd/cd drive. This allows him to listen to his educational cds. Well worth the money.

    A CD is provided with this CD drive, however you do not need to use it. It has extra products if you are interested. We plugged in the CD drive and put our CD in without installing anything and it read the CD. Easy squeezy.

    Since CD/DVD drives are no longer included in computers this external one was a good price for a very adequate drive. Still need them for some things.

    I bought this player when my school (I'm a teacher) made changes to our technology and I lost the ability to show DVD recordings to my students. Took it to school, plugged it in and PRESTO! I'm back in business! I love it and my students are glad too.

    this is my first external DVD RW Drive. so it took a little bit to get used to. but i think i like it. i keep it in a draw and only hook it up when i need it. it's nice because my computer is lighter, and cooler, than it would be with an internal drive.

    This unit works well and is a good value. I had no issues getting it to work on my Windows 10 laptop. The build doesn't feel particularly sturdy when being handled, but at the prices is what I expected. Recommended.
