User Ratings and Reviews

5 Stars Plug and Play
Short version: this external drive was easy to install and works well so far with Vista. Important to note that the instructions are minimal, and this does not write to DVD’s. It does everything it promised to do, so I’m very pleased with it.

5 Stars Lots Of Pros
Pros— Small–Light Weight –Just Plug And Play. The picture is great on both my MSI Mini and my wife’s Acer Mini. Seems fairly well made . Should last for a long while ?? The only thing I would like to see , is a longer connection cord.

5 Stars Must have for all PC owners!
Hi, I had problems with both my PC’s dvd-drive, laptop and desktop. My desktop I had to get a new one put in, then on my vaio laptop I had trouple with the new dvd-Rom and instead of buying another(I lost the receipt) I bought this excellent external DVD-ROM! If my desk top driver messes up I can use this, or I can just plug it into my laptop if I need to. I didn’t have to “install’ with vista, just plug in and play. I may have to run the installation disk for my Windows 98 I believe.

I highly recommend all PC owners have a spare external DVD-ROM like this one. And for the price, around $45, this seemed to be my best option on Amazon. Works great and is very affordable!!

5 Stars Great little drive!
This is a great little CD burner/DVD watcher. It’s compact, installed quickly by itself (no driver needed, although it comes with one), and works great with my Asus EEE PC Netbook (XP). I installed Nero 7 essentials with it and it burned a CD perfectly the first time I tried it. Watching DVD’s works great too–very clear picture! I highly recommend this drive for someone looking for a small portable CD writer. Note: this drive does not burn DVD’s.

5 Stars Works Great
I was pleasantly surprised how well this drive works on my windows 2000 IBM pc my 7 year old inherited. Plug and Play, enough said!

I was dreading the installation, it was a breeze!

My only concern now is the durability in the hands of a 7 year old.

I will have to re-review in 6 months or so.

Highly recommend!
