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.

    Works for the purpose intended. Very slimline, which makes it convenient to pack for a mobile worker. Not the fastest reader, but more than adequate to get the job done.

    I needed a way to play DVDs with my MacBook Air. This was recommended by the employee in the electronics section, and she hit the nail on the head. It does all I wanted it to do, and it was a good, inexpensive investment.

    Can't believe I spent $70 for an Apple DVD USB player...granted it was several years ago but the LG one was SO much cheaper and it works EXACTLY the same! Super worth, especially with thin laptops now that don't have USB ports.

    Works great. My Dell XPS 13 doesn't have an internal CD player and this small external one works great. I had to get an adapter as it is set up for standard USB portal, which the XPS 13 doesn't have. It has the new C port.

    The performance is fine. I did have some difficulty in getting to the point where it would work at all but I think hat that was due to my own ineptitude at downloading the appropriate apps from the CD Disc!

    I got this when it was on sale for 25$ when I recently built my new computer I was under the impression that most new towers have to slot for disk drives lol. Simple pop out of the box plug in and boom your set
