  • Works great -- needed a little assist with software installation
Style: Single
Recently I had a need for a DVD player for my laptop to play a few specific discs however with technology change, of course it did not have a built in optical drive. So I hit up amazon and picked out an external DVD/BD that claimed to be plug and play. But upon using it, there was no software to read discs and it would not work with the VLC software I already was familiar with and had installed. I returned it and went looking again. I came across this external player that specifically advertised it came with software to read discs as well as to burn them. It was a bonus this Dell external would save me $$. It arrived quickly and sealed. Nearly flawless plug and play but it did require a little Googling during the software installation. I ran into trouble that Windows was blocking the installation requiring Administrator access regardless that I am the admin of my own computer. If you find you run into trouble installing the PowerDVD software that comes with this drive, try the following which was taken from the Microsoft Answers Community Forum: 1. type "command prompt" into the search bar and then RIGHT click it to "Run as Administrator". 2. in the command prompt window type "net user administrator /active:yes" and it should follow with "The command completed successfully" message. 3. from the Start window and your user profile, click it to change to the Administrator profile and wait for it to be set up. 4. locate the setup.exe file for the software and install it. 5. switch back to your original user profile from the Start window. 6. to disable the Admin account access the Command Prompt with Admin rights and type "net user administrator /active:no" which will also be followed by the message "The command completed successfully" This worked perfectly for me, and the software has had no issues reading the DVDs I placed in the drive. The drive initial disc spin up has a little bit of noise but then the drive quiets back down and is not noticeable during playback. Highly recommend this drive with its included PowerDVD software. ... show more

  • PERFECTLY FUNCTIONAL BUT FRAGILE
Style: Single
Being that my new Dell computer does not have its own disc drive, I ordered this one, plugged it into the computer, and securely mounted it on the corner of my desk. It worked beautifully until I left its tray open and clumsily backed into it with my office chair. Only broken pieces of the tray remained, so I quickly ordered another one and learned my lesson well. This little media player works BEAUTIFULLY, but it IS a bit fragile, so care must be taken. Especially when loading or UNloading the tray give it support underneath. It's a beautiful little media player, and I highly recommend it for the modest price. ... show more

  • Piece of cake!! It works flawlessly!
Style: Single
I had a stack (a BIG STACK) of CDs to load into iTunes and the CDROM worked flawlessly throughout loading about 45 CDs. I’m pretty sure that there are faster devices, but for the price this thing would be very hard to beat. It paired with my DELL laptop without any additional steps. Perfect!

  • Works Perfectly
Style: Single
Worked just as expected right out of the box. Very easy to set up-just plug it in to a USB port and you are off and running. My only negative is the somewhat lightweight case. Feels vaunerable if you are going to carry it around very much.

  • Worked perfectly right out of the box!
Style: Single
My 17" Dell Inspiron 2-in-1 has no drive, this one worked instantly, without any help from me. I had disks going back at least 20 yrs. Most all of them were readable. It worked fine on 9 out of 10 and I assume the others were never finalized after data storage so the couldn't be read in today's windows environments. Drive is small, light, convenient and does everything I needed. Worth the price for sure. I do recommend ordering a storage\travel case to store and keep it safe, especially if it's going to travel. I don't think it was built for the field. ... show more
