    This is a great product to have since most laptops now don't come with a build in dvd/cd drive. This does the job.

    I purchased the DVD drive for two reasons: 1. Price, 2. size. It works great and I have no issues. Very compact and sturdy.

    Great DVD rom

    My all-in-one computers' DVD drive rom initially "disappeared" when I upgraded to Windows 8 and 8.1. I was at a loss. I then paid after many months to get my pc back to Windows 7. Then Aha! ...it worked again...for a week! I was confused. The cost for replacing the DVD drive would have been enormous. Then the light bulb lit: an LG external DVD drive. This turned out to be a blessing. Works seamlessly and has been without a glitch since I got it. Now I can make and burn my home videos for prosperity!
