5.0 out of 5 stars A good item to have if you need one
Pretty much all PC's do NOT come with a cd-rom. They are a thing of the past. We still do run into times when we want one though. I had ab urge to play my old favorite Guitar Hero series again, but lo and behold, no cd drive in my latest system. I have the guitar controller and game on cd, so I had to get this to install it. Worked like a charm, and I can also play my old music cd's on it as well. Easy to install, was plug n play basically, and a good value.
5.0 out of 5 stars Stop debating and buy this one.
I spent hours deliberating over all the choices Bolo 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!
4.0 out of 5 stars 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!
5.0 out of 5 stars Great External Drive
I bought this DVD drive because my new computer doesn't have one. This is a great product. Very easy to use. I love that it came with it's own zipped case. Has worked perfectly for adding my music CDs to my Apple library. Highly recommend.
5.0 out of 5 stars It works perfectly if you connect it correctly
Have you had lots of disconnects? Disc Reading issues? Accurip fails? Disc detection problems? Let me help you here. I've owned this thing for over 3 years. If you're using it in anything other than USB 3.0 input, IT WILL NOT FUNCTION CORRECTLY. If you plugged it into USB 2.0 thinking "It's a stupid disc reader/burner, it doesn't need 3.0 to work!" Well, you're wrong, it absolutely does. Now, despite what I just said, it may work fine in USB C with an adapter, or perhaps USB 1.0, which I don't use, but USB 2.0 will give you nothing but problems. You bought a USB 3.0 drive so use it in the right input folks. Good Luck.
5.0 out of 5 stars Works well.
I've had this a few years and use it to burn CDs and have watched DVDs with it to. No problems and easy to store away.
3.0 out of 5 stars Power Issue?
It was my intention to mount on the back of my TV and connect it to a micro PC also mounted back there. Unfortunately, disks won't play. You can hear the DVD spin up and then stop repeatedly. The drive works fine when connected to my laptop so maybe it's an issue with the USB ports on the mini-PC.
5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful external DVD drive!
I had my husband order this for me because I didn't realize that our new computers no long have DVD drives in them anymore and I have the need to watch or download information from computer from old files. I received it on-time and in good condition & the instructions were easy to follow. I'm really glad that I could still use my old DVD's and computer files, and I would buy more products from this vender.
Better Than Expected Performance
I was expecting old school speeds for read and write capabilities but was delightfully surprised, especially for USB attached. I was able to read old CD-ROM's and DVD's. No issues with setup or usage of the device with either reading or burning.NOTE: The USB cable is very short and this device is really designed to be attached to a laptop, I believe. Mine is connected to a tower so it's placement on top is a little ... precarious. I don't use it very often but when I do, it meets my expectations. Usually, I just use it for a specific purpose then unplug it and put it on a shelf.
