    Be aware that after 30 days you have to buy the software to keep burning media. It’s only trial software. I think that should be made clear in the description.

    We didn't know for sure if we needed this device but the price point on this item was such that we felt it made good sense for us and sure enough within the very first week with our new lap top we had a Cause to use this device and it worked to perfection. We are so grateful for the recommendation to purchase this product.

    Bought this to use with my new PC. Shocked it was so easy to set up. Plugged it in and that was all I needed to do. Been using it a lot downloading old CD's and this is a fast unit. Some of the CD's are older with scratches and it reads them all perfectly. Really happy I picked up this unit.

    Bought it and must have burned about 20 CD's in one night! Quick, efficient, quiet & function-able. Just what we wanted to burn games/movies/music. Also reads discs as most devices these days don't have a CD spot. So we can travel with it as well. Great purchase

    Works well with our MacBook Pro. The only trick is to restart the computer once in. After that it worked flawlessly.

    I bought this drive for my wife's new HP All-In-One. As computers no longer have optical drives installed I found this LG product highly recommended. It was Easy to Install and the price was ridiculously low.
