  1. Norma

    Great product! My computer DVD player doesn’t work and I enjoy watching DVDs on my laptop while in bed. The unit connects to a USB port (cable included) and can be unplugged as soon as the disk gets ejected. No software needed (Mac).

  2. Janet

    It works great! It’s great to have both them in one.

  3. sketejf

    Worked right out of the box, Watched some retro DVDs.

  4. JamesK

    Nice external drive, worked well with my MRI disc’s

  5. Chris

    It does what it says it does. It’s nice to have one of these in case needed.

  6. user439089

    Picked up in good time even though it was near Christmas. Works as expected. Time will tell how it fares in the long run.

  7. Padre

    The drive works as it should. No problems with this device.

  8. LaurelS

    I needed to retrieve some old files after I bought a new computer and this worked perfectly. I was able to get what I needed.

  9. carmenc50

    The unit works well with no issues. I have used it to read CDs and DVDs and did not have any issues with it.

  10. user493261

    wORKS GREAT! vERY SIMPLE AND STRAIGHT FORWARD, I GOT THIS FOR AN OLD DV-R VIDEO CAMERA SO I CAQN TRANSFER THE FOOTAGE TO MY PHONE AND IT WORKED YAY

  11. Turtle13

    I have been able to listen to my CDs again! Christmas was so much better with music. It is very easy to connect the drive to my laptop and listen to my music. It is somewhat cumbersome to have room to set the drive down, but it is worth the effort to find room for the unit.

  12. DouglasA

    It met our needs very well & was very easy to use.

  13. Vendaxian

    +Compatible with large assortment of old media standards. Able to read most burned media
    +lightweight
    +no power cable

    -if media has lots of scratches or bad sectors, can make entire computer stutter or freeze
    -very short data cable included

  14. AndreR

    The product was easy to set and easy to use and did what it was suppose to do!

  15. CindyB

    Works well with the laptop I purchased so that I can watch videos if needed and save items.

  16. JerryP

    I started in computers 25 years ago when this type of drive would have cost $750. And now its less than $20. Wow.

  17. LGBluRaystreamingplsyrt

    Great product which is a plug and play unit. Excellent performance at a very reasonable price.

  18. PatriciaT

    Got a new computer with no way to play your CDs? This is the perfect simple device to use your usb port and plug right in. Cord comes with it and the device can read/write/ and play DVDs and music. Wonderful.

  19. EdwardG

    My wife loves this for our pictures and videos! It works great!

  20. Lastgunslinger

    A little slow running but overall a very good external disc drive

  21. BonnieV

    Great prize , I would recommend this and it was in stock

  22. Clean

    Easy to use. very simple installation. I would buy it again if I need another one.

  23. JosephL

    Had some DVD’s with older photos and able to recapture them.

  24. RobertS

    Nice price and does what it needs to do. Haven’t had any problems using it.

  25. DonnaM

    WAS VERY EASY TO HOOK. WORKS AWESOME. GREAT PRICE.

  26. KeithL

    Exactly the product we were looking for. We asked an associate if Besy Buy had this type of product in stock. In less than a minute, the associate showed us the product. Excellent customer service. We used the product as soon as we returned home. It worked wonderfully.

  27. StephenG

    very good R/W DVD product. bought it on a very good sale, so a great value.

  28. MelissaR

    This is a sweet little external disc player. Integrated easily with my MacBook. It’s stable when moved, slim and lightweight.

  29. RobertoH

    Great prices and works great. Nice and sleek. Cant even tell its there.

  30. Unknown

    This is really neat. Not only was I able to load software onto my laptop and desktop with it, but it can also be used to watch movies!

  31. LongTom

    I miss having the DVD drive built into my central processing unit, but this makes a good substitute. I can also use this with my laptop computer.

  32. JohnR

    Bought this to be able to play discs when I purchased a mini CPU to replace my tower. Easy to install and learn to use. Downloaded the Power DVD 20 that came with the software. It actually plays some older DVDs I have that I used to use in class that my tower DVD player would not. So far would recommend. Is working on my Windows 11 system as well. Have not attempted writing as of yet.

  33. Olderperson

    Never has worked. I’ve tried following the directions many times. Still doesn’t work like the guy said!!!!

  34. BruceB

    Great value, high quality, and quick delivery. Thanks

  35. JackN

    Great Item at a great price. Easy pickup and service/

  36. WilliamjS

    Hooks up easily to the desktop, upon which I have it perched. Inexpensive.

  37. Nickmarine

    Worked first time, plug and play, easy cheesy, better than expected.

  38. MichaelB

    Ordered online. Came timely and worked as advertised

  39. ChristopherS

    I only use this to watch old DVDs and play old games on laptop. Cheap price, good quality.

  40. kevmog

    Exactly what I needed to utilize older data disks and cd’s.

  41. JonS

    Simple to use and works well. It was easy to set up and pretty straightforward to use.

  42. Loveit

    It’s so weightless I love it and doesn’t make sound at all

  43. Jerald

    Very pleased with this burner/driver as it is very easy to use.

  44. KimberLee

    Lightweight. Affordable. Plug & Play. We bought this to view medical images on CD. Played right up! Since most laptops don’t have a cd rom. Small and can be packed away when not in use.

  45. hannah

    i’ve been using this for the past few weeks to watch dvds and listen to cds with my laptop, and so far it’s been working great and been fun to have! 🙂

  46. PattyG

    I bought this because computers do not come with CD/DVD drives any longer. I have a lot of CDs with pictures so I use this when I need to access those. I wound up buying a second one for my son for the same reason.

  47. TwilightWolf

    Kinda overpriced in my opinion, but it gets the job done. Slow to todays standards though, so be aware of that.

  48. CraigS

    It’s been over a month since purchasing this external DVD/CD RW drive. I have used it a few times and have no issues. Easy to install (just plug it in) and easy to use.

  49. FrancesS

    Unlike Apple products, it’s complicated to use. Thought I would just plug it in and it would work but there was a bunch of stuff that had to be clicked through. The screen called for an upgrade, which I did and it still doesn’t work.

  50. SimonK

    I needed an inexpensive disc drive to rip couple of cds to my computer. Everything worked as supposed to.
