Customers are saying

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.

    This comes in handy for when I need to use CD-Rom's or play an older version game. Now a days that computers don't have this anymore, this always comes in handy.

    Got this to copy old CDs to my new computer, and it works great with iTunes and is fast. However, I don't like the physical eject button seems disabled when plugged into the mac. I wish it worked 100% of the time when pushed instead of going through the system

    It does the job. It seems delicate. It could break easily. But it's inexpensive.

    Had difficulty installing it the first time, and Best Buy determined it was defective. They replaced it with the identical model, which installed easily and works fine. It is a useful device for both of our Macs because neither one has a slot for DVDs

    I needed a good unit to play DVDs and did not need the clutter of having an external power cord to go with it. Clutter free and portable all in a compact slim design. Very nice so far.
