Portable External USB DVD Drive Compatible for Microsoft Windows 11/10/8.1 etc, Mac OS, Dell,Acer, ASUS, Apple, Samsung, Lenovo Laptop PC Desktop, CD/DVD-RW Drive, CD-RW Rewriter

Does exactly what it’s supposed to. Easy to use and works great!

As soon as I attached the drive to a Windows 11 laptop, the drive was operable,. It played CD's immediately. However, to play DVD's I had to download a DVD player onto my laptop.

First of all the Dell external optical drive is great and works well. However the DVD player software (version 14.0) included is out of date and no longer supported for Windows 10 or 11. I had to purchase an upgrade to Cyberlink DVD player 22 at extra cost. Maybe I should have checked with the company's Tech support but as time was an issue and I did not. The other components of the Media suite 12 by Cyberlink work OK.

I work for a business in which we sometimes receive discs that have sensitive information to be uploaded and distributed. Our new company issued Dell laptops do not have a disc drive. We ordered this external drive as a solution to our problems with uploading images/documents from a disc. We do not use this often and only used 3 times and the device stopped working. I am very disappointed with this purchase. I love my Dell laptop. I do not know what the disconnect is with the quality of this specific product but they need to go back to the drawing board on this one. This was also $60 to use 3 times, ridiculous!

I am very satisfied with this purchase. I simply plugged in to a usb slot on my computer and I was ready to view pictures stored on discs. It runs very quietly. Thoroughly happy with it.

Works great. But, I had to have Dell c/s help me install it.

Simply will not be accepted by my Lenovov Desktop, despite the description saying that it is. I expected this to be a plug and play item. The drive will spin up, but the Lenovo cannot read it. I get an error message about something unrecognized. *Should it be the case that I need to install something on my hard drive to make this Dell drive compatible/ readable, I would appreciate knowing what it is. I looked around on the computer as thoroughly as I know how, tried a few things, but found nothing that would recognize/ talk to this device.No chance to experience any other aspect-- other than that after much fiddling it finally would spin up disks that should be readible--clean and were readible in the past. I tried both a music CD and a video DVD that are in good shape.

It does what it's supposed to do
