Very easy to hookup. No power cord, just a USB connection - an no drivers are required, either. I was able to use to install software successfully and with no problems on Windows 10.

Excellent Burner for the cost

I bought this 4 years ago and it is still going strong. I got to a book study group that meets twice a year, 11 weeks at a time. I make myself a copy of everything I digitally record & make approximately 6 sets for other people, so about 80 cds twice a year. It is flawless in recording & playback.
Pros:
  • ease of use
  • Features/Settings
  • Performance
  • Quality

It works fine with me

It works fine with me. Slower than my oldest DVD drive but it's fine. But if you want to use it for your desktop Mac Pro it won't work, just with laptops. Although I found out how to make it work with my mac pro (you can find info on internet).

Unreliable

My MacBook Pro doesn't have an internal CD/DVD drive, so I purchased this LG external drive. I used it daily for one year to watch DVDs. After about 6 months, I started getting error messages every time I would watch a DVD. Mac DVD Player would display: "Skipping over damaged area," then crash.

Fast Speeds!

Read/write speeds are faster on this external drive than my old laptop with an internal DVD drive. Very happy with the upgrade coming with a lower price point unit.
