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 bought this to use with my new chromebook but it is not compatible. My son has a windows laptop without a dvd drive and it works great with that. Easy to setup and use.

    Since most new computers do not come with disc drives, this is a way to still access data that can not be transferred from the disc to my computer. Very fast.

    Had to buy this to make my Acer Chromebook fully functional since the Acer has no disk reader. Would have been cheaper to have paid more and gotten a laptop with built in readers. Goes to show, even experienced computer users can make mistakes . . . that's why the return policy is so short, buy the time you discover probles, they 'are' your problems.
