    It's an external DVD writer, and it works well

    If you need an external writer that's powered off USB, then this is what you want. It's not the fastest drive in the world, but then again, it's powered by USB, it's slim, it's easy to carry around, and doesn't require an external power supply. It does exactly what you want, in the form factor you want. What more is there to possibly say about this thing? I guess you wouldn't want to throw it around, run it over with your car, or sit on it, as it's not rugged, and is just black plastic. It probably won't win any beautiful design awards, but it's great for what it is.

    My only real complaint is that you have to buy software to watch a DVD. Cheap price, but the software ends up more than the drive itself.

    I have used this for about four weeks now and it is an excellent LG CD player. I use it to listen to audio books while on my computer. I have not use to write, or DVD yet. I'm confident that it will work as well for that as well. I'm keeping the box till the return time has expired should anything messes up. For $30 what a Buy at Best Buy. Right.

    I bought this when I found out that the Apple external disc drive requires an additional plug for connection to the Apple device - to function. This product is all-in-one and functions immediately without need for downloading software to your computer. Very good product that supports all my needs.

    I know it is old tech but this is perfect for what I wanted. I still buy CDs because I like to have a physical copy. The drive is so I can digitize them. This works on both my Mac and my PC with no issues.
