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.

    Needed an external CD port since my new laptop didn’t have one, bought this one for my anatomy hw and it worked great. Compact so it was easy to take on the go. Compatible with my HP and current windows programming, even if the CD was ancient.

    You Don't Have to Lose/Give Up The DVD/CD Drive

    The external USB DVD/CD drive is just what I needed for loading my new laptop with FTM software program. I also enjoy CDs being played while I work on the laptop. It works well for looking at the homemade DVDs from 2007. It is sad that the majority of laptops do not offer the option of the built in drive tray.

    This is your typical external USB drive for those PCs who do not have an internal one. It's lightweight and can be easily transported around with you. Overall speed is good and the price for the device won't break the bank.
