    I use this at school. Our computers do not have CD players, so a great reward is watching a movie! Connects in a breeze!

    Most laptops don’t come with a DVD drive any more, so this is a necessary addition if you need to download from a CD. This model worked well.

    Can’t beat a $20 external cd/dvd with writing capabilities. Compact and quickly connects. Very convenient now that laptops don’t come with cd drives anymore.

    I don't actually use a briefcase, I use a laptop bag. Since my laptop doesn't come with a DVD drive, I got this. Fits in my laptop bag with room to spare.

    I honestly didn't expect much from this Cd drive because it was only $30.00. I was pleasantly surprised. It works well, no special features. Good bang for the buck.
