FormerLGfan –
The optical drive was awesome (compact size any easy to use) for one month, then it just stopped working. It won’t even turn on. Nothing happens when it is plugged into any computer. The computer doesn’t even recognize it is there.
It only gets one star for ease of use, because not working impairs it’s ability to be used.
Also, there doesn’t seem to be a “force open/ manual override” button, usually a tiny hole where you insert a pin, to retrieve a disk that might have been left in the drive.
JamesK –
Worked as expected. There are many things you have to download initially but after that worked great for viewing a work disc and watching a movie.
user756614 –
This product was easy to use and set up. It is exactly what I was looking for.
Jeff –
Works as advertised. A reliable device that has become a commodity at a reasonable price.
PetraS –

Donthaveanywewe –
It’s a great item but to be honest, I haven’t had the chance to look at it because been very busy packing my things because we are moving and selling the house.
Sarah –
Got it to take stuff off of Google and make room / free up space. Even though you should always have a 2nd back up. Possibly get two.
Joanne –
I can’t believe computers don’t come with these anymore. This is fine.

Great product. I can do all the things I used to do when I had a tower. I miss everything old, it worked longer and better.

This unit is very easy to use. It is a plug and play unit. It is very quiet when running. No issues inserting/ejecting discs. First disc I put in was from 2006 with photos on it. They came up in a few seconds, and I was able to transfer some easily to my Mac. I could not have been happier since I had not seen contents of the disc for 17 years.
Hitman –
I wish I would’ve gotten one that was a little faster but that’s my fault. This one works just as it should, and very easily able to be hooked into the computer.
Mikeb –
Works simply, and perfectly. Just plug it into the computer, and it’s ready to go.
DannyandKarin –
Unsure how well it worked. Bought 2 different DVD writers… cheaper one worked so well I just kept that one instead and returned this one.
Unknown –
Bought since alot of computers do not come with them anymore and I like to have the option just in case. Works well, not to loud and works fast.
momg –
great product glad we bought it to transfer our pictures
AnitaS –
I had to replace my old Laptop and the New ones do not have DVD+RW/CD-RW Players. This is something that I do not use all the time, So being External, all I have to do is plug it in when I need it and it works perfectly.
ldnash –
Just what I needed since they quit making computers & laptops without these.
JamesJ –
Only works with windows 9 and under, a waste of money.
Elove625 –
I initially hesitated to purchase this device due to my reliance on iOS. However, I was pleasantly surprised as the CD-ROM seamlessly connected to my computer, dispelling my concerns. If I could, I would grant it an even higher rating if it were possible. I wholeheartedly urge everyone to invest in this exceptional item.
MitchellH –
Operating like it should. Is compact and fast with the cd/dvd.
Anna –
Decent product. I had some difficulty with the software running the machine but just uninstalled and reinstalled & whatever glitch happened fixed itself. For some reason to i can’t get it to burn disks. It reads & i can transfer from disk to my laptop but i can’t burn anything from my laptop.
user370557 –
Works decently. Software disc loading had too many $ upgrade options.
MichaelK –
Works great, able to load large files for reading surgery cases
JoseO –
Exactly what I needed.
No program installation needed. Connects through USB on laptop.
Plays all my dvd/cds without issue.
Make sure you have some sort of media player on your device.

hpphoto –

JoanL –
Does what I needed it to do. Installed a shortcut without asking for permission.
Korena1966 –
I purchased it & tried to copy a disc and couldn’t get it to work. So it’s just “there” taking up space. I called to get help and they couldn’t give me much help on the customer service line.
AaronB –
Gift for my son ti burn his music to cd. Works great
DinoC –
Had to add an external CD/DVD drive since current laptops no longer include one. This LG unit as been running trouble free so far. Very easy plug-n-play and good data rates.
AnthonyT –
Good product. Just plug in to install. Reads discs well. No problems so far.
MitchellF –
Great product works well preforming like it should
PhillipA –
Pretty hard to find a computer these days with the CD ROM drive, but I really needed one in a pinch for some legacy software at work. Every IT department needs one of these in their go bag.
PatriciaS –
Did not realize it was so easy to input dvds into your hard drive. Works like a charm.
Francisco –
