    Seems to work like my old built-in

    Haven’t used it but once so far, but seems to work fine. Easy connection to my new all-in-one HP computer which doesn’t have the cd-dvd player like my 2011 all-in-one HP computer did. The old built in would copy DVD’s and cd’s though and I’m not sure if this one does. Price is great!

    Good Compact Choice

    It works well, very compact. I was looking for something a little larger, but those are no longer available, and this one was. If you like compact for occasional use this would be a good choice for you. If you plan on burning CDs daily, you might see if something else is available. (The only other option I found was several hundred dollars more than this.)

    Bought this to accompany a new DELL XPS which had no DVD drive. Works very well. Very thin and I think it is best to handle the open drawer gently when placing and removing discs. Very affordable price.

    Great external cd burner

    This cd burner was really easy to plug and play. It works great for burning a music cd for my vehicle as the cd burner on my laptop does not do a very good job. The price was excellent and the shipping was fast. I love the quality and ease of use.

    It is a very slim and lightweight DVD drive. It is very easy to use on a Windows 7+ computer because the drivers are already installed.

    Plays my CD's and DVD's just fine. Prefer it to be internal on new laptop but can't stop technology. Cheap enough and a no brainer to setup and play. Delivered to my doorstep within a couple of days.

    Exactly what you look for in a DVD/CD drive; one that just works with no hiccups or headaches. I have yet to experience any issues with the drive. Read speeds are good, write speeds are good. Great drive for the price.

    Chose this external disc drive because I've always been very pleased with LG products and the on line reviews were solid. And the price was very competitive. When I received it, it was a breeze to install it for use with my laptop and it is fast, responsive and plays/stores as if it were built in.
