They also appreciate its compact size, lightweight design, impressive speed, and quiet operation, along with its convenient USB-only power and broad compatibility.

    It plays my CD and DVD's well enough so that I can run my computer games on my new HP computer. I just wish that it was not an external drive; that it was part of my computer. You might need an USB extension cord like I did to put his in a good location for easy access.

    Basic cd/dvd drive that does what it's supposed to do. I thought the price was a bit high and I could have purchased it cheaper on amazon but I was in the store already and picked it up. Speeds are a little slow compared to some other drives out there but all in all, it's an efficient drive that works and gives no problems.
