    Bought this for my son who has a new computer with internal CD-Rom... He loves it; he has so many CDs and he really wanted to be able to just upload them rather than search and download hundreds of his favorite songs.

    It works just as I hoped it would. It takes care of all the things my old heavy laptop's built-in CD drive did. So when needed, its a nice addition to my new light weight, easy travel, Lenovo hard disk laptop.

    I needed a USB DVD player since computers don't come standard with them anymore and this worked perfectly! No software to install (MAC) and it worked immediately upon plugging in an inserting the DVD. No problems at all!

    It did what I wanted it for: Use old DVDs in my laptop, which has no DVD drive. I haven’t yet tried the “Write“ function, so my rating does not include that. Overall, I’m happy with my purchase.

    I would have given this product a 5 star review but the software that came with it doesn't have the ability to read some of the files that I use. I have had to load a program that will do what I need to do. Other than that, it is a good product.

    The PC I built did not have an internal drive, and needed a disc drive for some software downloads. The device works great and was instantly recognized by the computer. It's very thin and unobtrusive.
