Review: Great external drive - Not sure why they sell laptops without a DVD drive these days, but bought a new one and no drive. I purchased this because sometimes I just want to watch an old movie I have on DVD. This drive works well and was easy to use, plug and play. Of course, need to download some software to play a movie, which is easy to find and many free ones, so no problem there. Good price and good value for the money.
Review: Works perfect for Dreamcast games even at 24x - Works great for burning Dreamcast games! I bought this because the cheap Rioddas burner I bought died after the first disc I burned. This one not only burns great and consistently, but I don’t get any write errors! Right out of the box it wrote 65 games that had no errors and worked perfectly. Not sure why people are claiming it’s a loud drive because it writes extremely quiet. I was amazed to see even at 24x write speed it’s burning games without a single error. Couldn’t be happier with the purchase, if you can buy it now while it’s 60% off it’s a great deal! I’m currently using the 100 stack of CMC pro taiyo yuden CDRs with it and it’s extremely reliable. Great design, compact, quiet, and efficient right out of the box. 10/10 worth every penny.
