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.

    New laptop does not come with a DVD drive anymore. I had programs I needed to load from a disk and this worked well.

    Great buy for the sale price. Would have paid full price as well. Works as advertised. Easy way to add DVD/CD capability to a desktop without it built in.

    I purchased my external DVD/R drive for my new MacBook Air. Its slim design allows me to fit it into my back pack so it's always with me. It was easy to set-up and has performed reliably.

    fits very well on a small desk top ... plug and play was not a issue ... only complaint was that the tray could eject a bit further out other than that no issues

    I purchased this item because my laptop does not have a dvd drive. I wanted a way of viewing dvds and downloading programs to my laptop. This product does the job as intended. It is plug and play.

    Most smaller laptops no longer have internal DVD/CD drive. This device was bought to complement my new HP - Spectre x360 2-in-1 13.3" 4K Ultra HD Touch-Screen Laptop. Works fine, reasonably priced.
