    Works great! Does an efficient job writing CDs/dvds when I need them occasionally, and is small enough it’s out of the way.

    You'd think burning CDs would be extinct and file sharing via links a norm, but not everyone does this. I needed to share a bunch of my dad's scans he had done with various doctors and doctors are still very much in a CD mode. I no longer have any equipment to read or burn CDs so this little guy came in really handy. I used for a couple of other situations, so definitely worth it. Best part is that it's external so it can be hooked up to any computer equipment that has a USB hookup or USB adapter.
