    I'm glad that purchased a CD adapter for my laptop, However, this is still a bit big, mostly because it has to be big enough to insert a CD. However it makes it pretty annoying for portability. It is light weight. Good product.

    I got this drive to be able to boot my new new laptop from a DVD with imaging software. It worked fine for that (after changing boot parameters in BIOS). It is small, light and good looking.

    My job still uses cds pretty often. With so many computers not having cd drives, I needed to get an external one to be able to do all my work. This has worked very well for me so far. It installed quickly and easily. So far, it's read every disc I need it to. I haven't tried writing a CD with it yet, though.

    I had purchased a cheap external DVD drive online and it failed after less than a year. It was probably due to a bad cable but it was hard-wired. This drive has a removable cable so that could be replaced if there's every a problem. However, it has worked great since I purchased it 4 months ago and I'm very happy.

    Good working product for computers that have no built in CD tray. Only downside is the inconvenience of hook-up through an accessory port with a bulky cable which is a pain in the backside for those with limited space around their computer.
