External CD DVD Drive, Ultra Slim CD Burner USB 3.0 with 4 USB Ports and 2 TF/SD Card Slots, Optical Disk Drive for Laptop Mac, PC Windows 11/10/8/7 Linux OS

This CD player/burner has been good. I was waiting till I had enough time to write this review with it. I bought it for the occasional times I may need a CD player burner for my laptop. My secondary reason was as a docking station. Plus it is a good price point. Cheaper than just a docking station. The Item was Cheaper than a docking station plus I wanted with the added benefits of CDs & DVD's. I've had no issues. It's been a good product. Plus it has a c-cord and USB to connect to your computer & run. The hard shell case is nice. Everything is padded well inside and fits nice & snug. The docking port features on it is what really drew me in like I stated. Even though my newer computer has all these ports too they're more accessible to be plugged in quick. Especially if I want to use 1 of my C-ports and quickly plug something in to share it. It's well made whith a good price and has all the extra features and ports you can use on top of what you already have probably. It's not a Blu-ray player but it can handle all of your CD & DVD- R & RW needs. 👍, Good value!

El producto funciona bien. Bueno la foto es la misma que se ve aquí. Me saco de aprietos porque era necesario instalar unos drivers para una impresora, y no pude encontrarlos en internet. Pero tengo el disco de la HP officejet Pro. y fue muy facil gracias al lector de disco. Gracias.

The Drive performs exactly the task I ordered it for. Like many of the products we purchase to expand the devices for our 3 USB port laptops, this unit will not work on a USB hub. The unit is Plug & Play. The rest is all petty stuff. The User Manual is printed on the typical 4x4 paper. Get out the bifocals and a magnifying lens. There is a website for customer support/warranty. I could not find a reference to a website to download the user's manual and be able to read/see what the many ports are for on the drive. I assume it is customer support site.

We have 2 laptops with no disk drive. This is compact and gets the job done if we need to run a disk. I saw reviews dissatisfied with the speed, but we just use it to pull pictures or files from old backup disks. Works great for us.

I ordered thisNew External CD DVD Drive, Cool DVD Burner USB 3.0 with Ethernet Adapter, 3 USB and 2 TF/SD Card Ports, CD DVD Player Reader Writer Optical Disc Drive for Laptop PC Windows Mac with Carrying Case. Very nice External CD DVD drive. When I bought it, I didn’t have my lap top yet, which wasn’t a problem. I looked the product over to make sure that it hadn’t been miss handled. I found no problem at all, the packaging was, be on good I was very pleased. I put the CD drive back into its case and back into it box and put it away until my laptop came in. Once the laptop came in I started getting all my photos together in folders so I could move them off my laptop on to CD’s, that’s when I found that the IN/OUT button didn’t work. I would have to take a small push pin to open the CD disk. I thought it was just me, but it wasn’t. You would have to use the push pin whenever you wanted to get the door open.The window was closed on March 8, 2025, to return and I understand I’m way past that date. But I was wondering if there was a way to return to get it fixed, I really can’t use it the way it is but I am willing to, if the price was right send it back to get it repaired.

I got this external CD/DVD drive a few weeks ago to revive some old discs, and I’ve been pleasantly surprised. It’s plug-and-play—no setup headaches—and quickly reads and writes CDs and DVDs on both my Windows laptop and a macOS device. The sleek, slim design is easy to slip into a tech bag, and having the built-in USB 3.0 cable makes it super convenient.

drive basically won't function on USB port power. i have another small usb optical drive that runs on usb port power, so i don't see why this one cannot. this drive does NOT come with a power supply, and they don't tell you before you buy it that you'll need one. waste of money. terrible idea for a laptop drive.[UPDATED]So. It shouldn't BE this way, and it's a weird mystery, but here goes. What does NOT WORK (as a simple DVD READER - the reason i purchased it)What does NOT work:plugging the drive into the new Apple Mac Mini M4 Pro's FRONT USB C ports using the drive's USB C plug, will light up the drive, but when you put a DVD into the drive, it will try to read, then the light goes out and it 'dies'.What DOES WORK:Plugging THIS drive into ANY port of an otherwise un-populated NON-POWERED 7 port Yottamaster USB 3.2 HUB where the USB hub is plugged into the SAME front USB C port(s) on a Apple Mac Mini M4 Pro. This works perfectly effortlessly quickly for PLAYING back a DVD using VLC. [that's 98% of the reason i bough the drive.I also I also tried plugging the USB C part of this drive's cord into a USB C to USB A adapter and plugging it into the NON-powered USB 3.2 7 port hub in the SAME front ports and it DOES WORK. So i don't know if the weirdness of NOT being able to plug the drive's USB C connector DIRECTLY into the Apple Mac Mini M4 Pro's FRONT USB C ports is a problem in the Apple Mac Mini M4 Pro, or if it's a problem in the DRIVE. Somebody is doing something NON-STANDARD.It's very disappointing to NOT be able to get it to work correctly while plugged DIRECTLY into the Apple Mac Mini M4 Pro's front USB C ports. I was hoping to get optical drive functionality AND get a few extra ports, AND tidy of the wiring. But this puts me in a spot where i am forced to use a USB HUB.I have NOT tested any of the other functions of this drive such as the other ports.I'd love a provable explanation for where the real issue lies.
