### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works very well

Seemed like a cheap unit at first, but turns out to work very well for my needs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Addition to my new laptop
*by R***T on January 20, 2024*

Bought this because my new laptop did not have a DVD drive. The drive is a true plug-and-play for my PC and Windows laptop. The small footprint lets me carry it in my gadget bag. USP provides sufficient power. If I break it, the replacement price is small enough that I won't cry much.
