    • Works fine on linux
Had to write a review to counter the other reviews saying it doesn’t work on Linux. It works perfectly actually. No installation at all. Truly plug and play on Ubuntu. I’ve been wanting to play some older games I’ve had on DVD so I got this and it works well. I also have been wanting to make physical backups of games on DVD but have yet to do that. ... show more

    • Zero set-up required, data reading is great, import is pretty good
I hooked this up and used it without any set-up required with my 2020 Macbook Pro (bc no internal drives anymore...) and then popped in an audio CD. Right away it appeared in my finder menu as 'audio cd' and also as a desktop icon. Once I clicked the 'remove' icon next to it in the apple music app and took the CD out, it removed from desktop and finder window without any issue. I also tried it with a DVD, and the only issue was it asked me to change the world region of the DVD player from its original region (China) to it's current region (US) because the DVD I played didn't match the drive player. After changing it, it played fine. My third test was a basic audio file import from a cd, and was also the only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5. The .m4a's appeared quickly and populated correctly in my finder window as well as the apple music app, and played without complication; but importing took at least 3x longer when compared to a 2010 macbook pro drive, with same import settings. Once imported though, quality was good and had no issues beyond the speed of import. I really love the USB-C and -A cord options, I have both Apple computers with only -C ports, and intel computers with -A ports, so it makes it a lot easier to transfer between machines, and saves me from having to plug in my dongle and rout data through one more cord for my macbook. The cord for this stores on the bottom of the drive though, which requires it to move back and forth quite a bit, I'm hoping that doesn't cause any repetitive-motion cord breakdown, but only time will tell if that'll be an issue. One other thing I noted that could be a problem, the Amicool drive makes a lot of 'start up' noise when plugged in and the reader is moving into position before inserting any CD/DVD's, I'm only mildly concerned about this right now, but it could suggest problems with construction that could be rubbing or loose or break in the future. For what I paid though, and for as little as I'll use it, I'm happy. I also appreciate the customer service additions in the package, they do their best to make sure you're satisfied. I'd definitely recommend for MBP users who need a CD/DVD drive, and especially one that transfers back and forth between USB-C/-A. ... show more

    • Affordable and Worked Well right from the box
I purchased this so I could download my CD collection into my virtual music library. This works exactly as intended. There were no drivers to install on my Windows 11 Asus Zenbook. The device was automatically recognized, and I was downloading files within minutes. The only thing that would make this better is a slightly longer USB cable. I had to attach this very close to the docking station for my laptop, which made it inconvenient. I solved this with a USB extension cable. Also, I tend to prefer items with a detachable cable so if the connector dies, we can just replace the cable and not the entire device. Overall, not a big deal, but just minor improvements that could be made for the usability and longevity of the device. ... show more
