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 have a Windows 10 PC and my old DVD player stopped working. I also have iTunes Software, so I didn't need to install the CyberLink Media Suite. The DVD Writer works right out of the box. I played music and burned a music CD using iTunes. I have not tried to watch a movie - maybe then I'll need the CyberLink Media Suite. Until then, I will not be installing it. My only complaint is that the USB Cable is too short, but I used another cable I already had so the device didn't have to be on the floor. All in all I'm very please with it.

    I needed a drive to burn CDs as my computer didn’t have one. The price was very good. Easy to install, and, with the portability, it is perfect for laptops without a built in drive.

    Easy to use, PnP drive. Install windows and drivers on pc. Then set aside for the next time you need to use a drive. LG products are great with a great customer service. Easy buying decision.

    Normally, this item sells for $40, but I got it on sale for $20. It is very functional for everyday use as an external optical drive; it may not be the fastest one on the market, but its speed is quite decent.

    purchased this as a back up. I bought a new Dell all in one computer, what I didn't realize there was no DVD player like my old HP all in one computer. Happy with this, simple hook up.

    Great external DVD drive. My new all-in-one PC did not come with a DVD drive and this was a great solution so that I could load some of my older programs that were still on a disc.

    Since the majority of laptops seem to not have CDrom and everything has gone to digital downloads, I didn't think I would need it but I have used it several times and it works great and is super lightweight.

    When I purchased my new laptop I can't believe I overlooked it having a cd/dvd player rewriter. This is an excellent answer to my error works great and fast enough for what I do.....
