    Just a single cable from the drive to your USB port on your computer. How easy is that!! I'm using it with a Windows 10 laptop so there weren't any special drivers to load. Just plug it in and it works!

    Since PC's these days do not all come with dvd roms, this unit worked perfectly for my needs. Plug in, install software and use it. Very easy. Also, a good value for the cost.

    Used to transfer my mother’s cd/dvd collection to a hard drive. Easy to use and so far has been reliable. For the price, I definitely can’t complain. I haven’t used it yet to create cds.

    This thing is pretty handy and is easily transported with my Galaxy Book. The reader is fast for it's price and works reliably. The best part is that it is usb powered so no need to worry about more than that 1 cable.

    as an Oriskany drive for computers that don't have then built in, this works great. Getting dvd's to play takes a little effort with finding a workable driver but otherwise it works as expected.

    Good drive but inexcusable cable

    This drive performs as advertised. However, it has one weakness. It does not come with a USB-C cable. It is bad enough in these modern days that the device does not use USB-C, but it is inexcusable that the connection cable does not use USB-C.

    Got this on sale and I'm very pleased with it. Extra simple hook up. No extra power connections required. Just connect it and start recording DVD or CD. Also comes with DVD/CD burning software, in case you need it.
