Customers are saying

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.

This summary was generated by AI based on customer reviews.

The vast majority of our reviews come from verified purchases. Reviews from customers may include My Best Buy members, employees, and Tech Insider Network members (as tagged).

    How can I review a product that comes with no directions on how to use it? I have no idea if this works well or even if it works at all! For God sake, do us the favor of including at least some rudimentary directions on how to use it.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

      Posted .

      Hi, Ralph. Thank you for sharing your experience with your LG DVD Drive (SP80NB80) model. We understand the importance of having clear guidance when setting up a new product. To help you get started, please be aware that this drive is a "Plug and Play" device. Once connected to your computer's USB port, your operating system (Windows or macOS) should automatically recognize it as an external optical drive. If you are attempting to play a movie, ensure you have media player software installed that supports disc playback, as many modern computers do not include this by default. You can also find the full user manual and setup instructions here: https://www.lg.com/us/support/product/lg-SP80NB80.AVAR10B. If you’d like us to walk you through the setup or check that everything is working as expected, please send us an email at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. ^Juvy LG
