  • Very solid choice
Size: USB 3.0 Style: USB 3.0 USB-A
Love it! The Rioddas External CD/DVD Drive is a lifesaver for my laptop. It's small, easy to use, and works like a charm. No more worrying about missing out on CD/DVD functions. Plus, it's super affordable! Highly recommend for anyone needing an external drive.

  • Sleek, portable, but not overly expensive nor adjustable
Size: USB 3.0 Style: USB 3.0 USB-A
This external cd drive works very well, has a very sleek and convenient form factor that makes it very portable and easy to store when not in use. It's also rather fast- as it uses USB 3- and doesn't skip when the drive is jossled or on a slightly uneven surface. When I first got it I was a little confused as to how to plug it in before I turned it upsidedown and found that the cord was convienently stowed in a compartment on the bottom of the body of the drive. It was a little bit confusing to figure out how to pull it out and put it back away when I was done with the cord/drive but I figured it out. The trick is that there is a small piece of plastic in the place where the usb goes- and you need to make sure to put it in the right way and to slot it in first before putting in the rest of the cord. While this storage and formfactor makes the external drive very portable, sleek, and storable it- however- makes it very difficult to find a good place to place it while in use. As the cable is increadibly short that does not give many options for locations you can put it while it's plugged into your computer. Especially if your using a tower computer- like you see my my picture here- there just really isn't any good place to place it other than ontop of the tower which makes it not very good if you have fans on the top of your computer. And also, another thing that I found issue with the drive was that the usb plug itself was very snug when I was plugging it in and especially as I was taking it out. I imagine that the connection will break sooner than most devices and, unfortunately, the form factor and convienence factors will be null as the drive won't even work anymore and you won't be able to aquire a replacement cable for the drive. However, if you don't unplug and plug it back in again alot/don't overly use it then it'll likely be fine. Just be aware and use precaution and always unplug it with the main part of the USB to avoid damaging the connection with that main part and the wire. TL:DR Pros; *Convenient *Portable *Sleek pleasing form factor *All one device without any extraneous cables *Quick to use (no extra drivers or downloads of anything- a simple plug in and use) *Doesn't need to be completely flat to work *Dvd inside doesn't really get effected by anything but extreme disturbances Cons; *Very very short cable(see pictures) *A little confusing to figure out where the cord is and how to put it back away at first(I don't really count this one but I'm including it in my cons in case that's a factor for you) *Stiff usb plug in so be careful when unplugging/it's a little annoying to plug in *All one device- so if the cord gets disconnected from the usb plug you can't replace it only get a new one. --- I recommend buying this product ... show more

  • Works Decently Well
Size: USB 3.0 Style: USB 3.0 USB-A
I bought this item to play CDs, Discs, and Blu-ray on my computer to watch movies that I had physical copies of. I didn't need to burn anything or do anything fancy, I just wanted to watch movies. Upon receiving it, I've learned that it doesn't actually read Blu-ray Discs, and it doesn't really align with the glowing reviews it's received either. The instructions, first of all, are not "well written and easy to follow," as some reviews have said they were. They're riddled with grammatical mistakes and misspelled words which can make getting some of the information, (like not being able to process Blu-ray) easily lost in the mix of it all. Otherwise, though, it works fine to play Discs and CDs, but make sure you have VLC or another media player/editor. The basic one on a laptop won't work. Also, I really really want to stress that it doesn't read Blu-ray. I know it doesn't explicitly say that it would, but it took me getting the item to learn that it doesn't. The price is fair for what you're getting. ... show more

  • Works Perfectly!
Size: USB 3.0 Style: USB 3.0 USB-A
Lately my laptops etc have been devoid of a DVD drive. Was wanting to watch some movies since I'll have alot of down time after a recent surgery. Read about the Rioddas drive and Wow! Has worked without a glitch, after several long movies too. It's been a snap to use, and when you look at the value....I believe it was less than 20 bucks, you truly can't go wrong! Would not hesitate to recommend it strongly! ... show more

  • The brand new computers don’t come with CD drives
Size: USB 3.0 Style: USB 3.0 USB-A
I bought a new computer and it didn’t come with a CD drive. This was reasonably priced and is working beautifully. I am listening to the music that it has recorded into my iTunes on totally enjoying it.

  • Worked great until it didn’t
Size: USB 3.0 Style: USB 3.0 USB-A
Its been over a year since i purchased this. It worked really well until today (03-07-24) when it would not burn onto cd. It wouldn’t read the discs either. I unplugged, plugged back in and now it reads discs but still won’t burn discs. I have Windows 11 operating system and have checked all settings and searched for updates. There are none. This might not work for your Windows 11 pc. Update: I figured it out. There was a system update with my computer. ... show more

  • It's a drive
Size: USB 3.0 Style: USB 3.0 USB-A
Can't really rate it as delivery people left it in the rain and so it didn't work. But it was so inexpensive that loss was minimal. It looked like a good product and came quite fast. No fault of seller or product.
