I retired my last system that had a built in drive, so I went for the cheapest drive I could find. The drive is/does as advertised. I like that the cable stores in the bottom of the case and that it comes with a cloth bag to put the unit in. For reference the one I received had a dual port cord as shown in photos, not a USB cable with an adapter for USB-C as shown in the video. I do with the cord was just a tad longer, on a standard Dell desktop tower system, the cord just barely reaches the USB ports and allows the drive to sit on top of the tower at the back of the unit.
The unit was a little heavier than I expected, (was expecting close to the weight of units from laptops, but it still isn’t that heavy at all, and I take the little extra weight to be from the nice case around the drive unit.
The cover the drive was partially off on my when opening the box, but those just snap into place, so it went right back easily and has remained in place after use several times, so I’m not dinging it for that.
Great value! Saved going and picking one up at a local store for 2x the price. Free by 10am next day delivery made that an option as I had a need for this today.

I plugged it in to my all in one desktop and my desktop doesn’t even see that I plugged something in. Even in my file manager, it doesn’t show anything plugged in. I’d already downloaded a video player. Going to send it back. The description says it is good for Windows 11, but on the box it only goes up to Windows 10. Not sure if I got a faulty one, or if it simply won’t work on Windows 11.

I was skeptical with the price that this would work well and was honestly concerned with the possibility of spyware or something that would breech data. In spite of my concerns, I thought I’d give this a try because I really needed a way to access older family photos we have saved on cds. My software that catches spyware, viruses, etc. did not find anything when I hooked up this DVD player, so I hope they eases anyone else’s worries, too.
The DVD player came and seemed to be of really good quality. It even has a nice velvet bag to store it in when not in use. The instructions are clearly not written by a native English speaker and some bits are a bit vague, so I’ll tell you what worked for me:
1. Before connecting it to your computer, if you want to use it for DVDs, download a DVD player. My computer had a media player for photos and audio, but no DVD player app (which makes sense, since it didn’t have a DVD player!) The DVD player’s instructions say to “download the local famous player.” That’s what it’s talking about 🙂 I downloaded the free Nero player for my old Windows computer.
2. Plug the USB into your laptop. It has two different plug ins, looks like a regular USB and maybe a usb-c. Not sure when your need that other connection, but it’s an option!
3. At this point you may have to change the region for the DVD player. It is set on the east Asian region, so I had to change it to USA/CA.
4. Open the DVD player on your laptop if you want to play a DVD, otherwise just click on the box that pops up on the right side of the screen that says something about the DVD player and click play media.
5. Enjoy your dvd, audio files, or photos!
I did this with my photo cds first and it worked perfectly, then figured out I needed to open the DVD player first when playing a DVD and didn’t have any hiccups with that either.
Works fine, made well, does the job at a really good price. I am very pleased!

I bought this since I did not want to stuff a dvd drive in my new desktop. It was to install some games that my wife has on disc but when connecting it to my new Windows 11 machine it was at first not recognized at all. After trying other ports it was temporarily seen but had warnings for bad drivers in Device Manager. I rebooted my computer to see if it would recognize it on start-up but I got a bios warning that my system was going to shut down to protect against power surges from a USB device.
I have all my USB drivers updated as well as a powered hub which I unhooked everything else from to test. Given this I could test it on another machine in the house such as a windows 10 desktop, but I would rather avoid another round of anxiety caused by a scary bios warning.
I did attempt to locate drivers for it but to no avail. Perhaps I received a faulty unit or perhaps it simply doesn’t play well with my configuration. In the absence of drivers to download and test I am going to simply write off my small loss and look for a better product with some support behind it.
Other than this issue there is the incredibly short USB cable that makes it quite awkward to hook up to your machine.

It often ejects itself after pushing in the CD. Sometimes even ejects when reading the CD. I am really annoying with it.
The seller then followed up with me about this issue. He/She provided me a refund even it is too late on amazon to return it. I am chaning the rate from 1 star to 4 star because of their being responsible.
