HP External Portable Slim Design CD/DVD RW Write/Read Drive, USB, Black (F2B56AA)

Needed to load a tax CD onto laptop. This did the job.

Easy to use, very good for the money

Quieter than LG DVD player.

Worked well right out of the box. Built a new computer for which I needed to load the OS. Changed the boot sequence in the bios, plugged in the HP DVD unit, performed a save/exit in BIOS, the DVD Unit started up and the OS prompt came up and all was good! :)

A $13 external I have drive works faster than this one.

Making my own mix of music.

Liked!

Thus far this drive has worked very well! I hope it continues to be good in long run!

Good buy for the money.

All platforms (it just works)
