No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from LG Digital Customer Care
Posted .Hi, Larry. Thanks for sharing your experience with the LG DVD Drive (SP80NB80) model. We appreciate you letting us know how the unit performed for you, and we want you to get the smooth, reliable playback you expected.
For this model, we recommend a few quick checks that often restore proper operation:
* Connect the drive directly to a USB port on your computer rather than through a hub.
* Use the included USB Y‑cable to ensure the drive receives enough power.
* Try a different disc to confirm whether the issue is disc‑specific.
* Update your media playback software to the latest version. For more guidance, visit https://www.lg.com/us/support/help-library/bluray-discdvd-playback-issues-or-disc-stuck-bluray--1430839720368. If you’d like us to help you look into this further, feel free to reach out to us at lgdigitalcare@lg.sprinklrsupport.com. We're here to help. ^Juvy
