   Amazon Customer – April 22, 2025

   Still works great after lots and lots of use
   UPDATE, April 2022: So now I’ve lost count of how many times I have used this LG Electronics External Drive, for copying CDs to my computer and also to burn computer files to CD media. If I had to guess, I would say it’s been used a thousand times minimum, probably more. Still works like new, never a problem reading or burning anything. Lots of miles on this thing now, and performs flawlessly. I’d recommend this one and would definitely buy it again.FIRST UPDATE: After using this LG Electronics External Drive for a couple of months, I just could not be more pleased with it. I’ve already used it several hundred times. The built-in CD/DVD drive in my desktop computer stopped working after less than 3 years, although I did use it a lot- and I mean a whole lot. I wanted something simple to replace it with, easy to use, and with no bells and whistles and no internal storage.INITIAL REVIEW: When I received this, I plugged this drive into a USB port, and that’s all there was to it! Windows Media Player immediately recognized this drive, and my other downloaded CD ripping program just needed one simple settings change click to recognize the drive. I would say this LG Electronics External Drive is comparably fast at ripping and burning CDs as the old one that came on my computer. I have not and likely will not use it to play or burn DVDs, so I cannot comment on that, however my guess is it will work fine for DVDs as well. It does sound a bit louder when operating than my computer’s built-in CD/DVD drive, which I expected, as it is an external drive without the metal computer housing around it to pad the sound. I would not say operation is excessively loud, it is perfectly acceptable.The size is nice and small, and although it is light weight the 4 rubber pads on the bottom do a decent job at keeping it from sliding around on the top of my desk. Another review said this comes without a USB cable, which is not the case- included in the package box is a 2 foot mini USB cable. I bought a 3 foot cable thinking it would not come with a cable, but rest assured it does come with one. One cable is plenty powerful to both operate and power this drive with- no second USB connection is needed. There is also a programming CD included, which I’m not sure what is on it, and I doubt I will ever use it because this drive is doing everything I need it to do just out of the box.So, so far so good. It is working great and has been reliable so far. Who’s to say whether or not it will last for years, or may not develop problems in the future. Most electronics do. But for less than 30 dollars, it was a good investment, and for ease of operation I feel it would be hard to beat. I know some of the reviews are negative, but so are several reviews on every external drive offered on Amazon. My initial impression is to give this one a try, I think You’ll like it. I ordered it one day, and it arrived the next day, which is also a plus.

   So far so good
   The only reason I gave it 4 stars is bc the software disc that comes with it didn’t do much for me. Before that I was about to return it bc I didn’t realize the product description noted Windows 10 compatibility. I decided to try it anyway in my laptop that has Windows 11 and luckily it worked.I successfully installed the software to my computer but I couldn’t get any dvds to play, maybe I wasn’t clicking on the right thing who knows, but again luckily I looked in the Google shop or Microsoft shop (I forget which specifically) download a free compatible software and got it to finally play. Works fine for the moment. Today we stream everything but I still have a bunch of series and movies on DVD that I still enjoy bc of the extras and what not.I like that the player itself is small and very light weight and almost makes no noise while operating. I say get it but you may have to go out of your way to download a separate player software to enable it to play dvds and what not, but that in itself is effortless honestly, so there’s that.

   Great value, plug and play!
   It worked right out of the box. It also came with some software, and although I haven’t used it yet, I do plan to. My music CD’s sound pretty damn awesome out of this inexpensive DVD/CD player. I would have to say that it’s a very good value and so far I am recommending it.

   I bought this to replace an older LG external drive which wasn’t compatible with Win10 (although it still works fine on Win 7 after many years). This unit is smaller and lighter than the previous one I had. It feels a little less solid perhaps, but works fine and is completely painless to use – simple plug and play in Win 10. It’s exactly fit for purpose (in my case, reading and writing a DVD from time to time).

   This device reads every CD or DVDs that are unreadable for other devices. Fast, effective and quiet. It is the best so far

   Lo uso para mi trabajo, donde aun estamos con el uso de CDs para recibir información y la verdad por la calidad-precio y marca lo preferí a las marcas genéricas de lectores. Lo comparé con otros y al menos a mi no me ha fallado en leer ningún disco, en especifico para ver radiografias y Tomográfias. Sin duda recomiendo invertir un poco más por un mejor producto que productos sin marcas conocidas y el color hace que se sepa de quien es jajaja, porque sin duda sobresale con el resto
