  • Great to have
Worked perfectly, plugged right into my laptop and I copied over some older DVDs I had and it worked wonderful! Reasonably priced and appears to be compatible with most laptops. Very easy to use. You can find it on your drive and drag and drop files into it. It doesn’t take up much space and it’s a slim fit into my tech backpack. ... show more

  • Stop debating and buy this one.
I spent hours deliberating over all the choices Amazon had to offer. I'm not cheap, but I'm disabled and on a very limited budget, so I was leaning towards the low end of products to stay in my budget. I finally decided to try this product due to the 5 star reviews it got. Right out of the box, feels sturdy and well made. Virtually no setup, plug in the USB cable, and start doing whatever it is you want to do. The reason I needed a burner is most of my old copied music CD's were deteriorating, and I wanted to make new copies to keep in my truck. I was astonished at the speed this drive copied and burned my new CD's. I reproduced 9 albums in a little over 45 minutes. I am more than satisfied with those results. Also during the copy/burn process, I did not hesitate to abuse the drive a bit. Nothing violent, just average bumping, tapping, lifting and turning it, and not a glitch whatsoever, that is until I turned it upside down...It didn't like that...but picked up right where it left off, and had absolutely no effect on the quality of the burns. I also checked all of them and listened to 3 to their full length, and they all sound perfect. There are a couple of "Cons", but they are more than justified for the price and are easily accepted, or worked around. The first one is the "attached" USB cable, I would prefer it to be detachable, so it could be replaced if something happened to the original, but when I considered the fact that it is conveniently stored right on the unit for easy storage, transport, and protection, I decided to cross the "damage cable thing" bridge when I get to it, and move on. The second "Con" is that they don't include any software to actually use it other than Windows Media Player for playing music. So, I did my usual research and found "Express Burn" by NCH Software. It did a great job and very easy to use at an also unbeatable price...FREE! There may be others out there, and of course you could pay to get some premium features, but this program will copy files, create back-ups and copies of your music collection, as well as create bootable CD's to repair your Windows build if need be, without making an additional investment. To close this "novel" (which I almost never write reviews) I will just say I highly recommend this drive, and paired up with the free software you can't go wrong! ... show more

  • Works as designed
Cheap and easy to use. If this doesn't play on your windows computer/laptop, download a player like VLC!!!! The windows player sucks and will not function with this DVD player. Download player, install program, open it, connect the player, insert disc, select the media player located at the top-one of the upper menu bars, and select play from the drop down menu located at the bottom. The disc should start right up! ... show more

  • Product does not last as usual drives
I'm giving a 3-star rating because the item stopped working. I purchased this CD drive in February 2024 and used it about once a month, but now it does not turn on. I tried plugging it into different USBs, computers, and even a power USB port, and it does not light up anymore. The price is right given that it will not last more than 1 year. I probably will buy a different brand as this one did not last more than 10 uses. FYI, I plugged in the USB CD drive each time I needed to use it. ... show more

  • Simple plug and play - works great
No issues installing or using. 'Using with HP laptop running windows 11' A longer USB cord would be nice - but if you're like me, you got a few extra, longer cords hanging around
