Great drive
If you've just bought a netbook and are wondering 'How do I get all my software on here without a CD drive'? then this is your answer. Yes there are other ways of doing it but this is by far the easiest method. Just plug it in using the cable provided and it's up and running. It's that simple. Fantastic product and great value.
JUST ABOUT WORTHY OF ONE STAR!... 
I wish I had also took heed of the negative comments about this product. Yes, it looks very nice (black, not silver as illustrated!) but it simply does not work. It makes a whirring noise like it is trying to read the disc but then on my laptop it asks me to insert a disc! I tried 3 discs and none of them worked.
I'm not impressed. I need a DVD drive to do my work and its put me behind. I think I'll buy a more expensive one from a reliable seller. PLEASE don't buy this, it's a waste of time and money.
USB External CDROM Drive
A great little device you can carry with you and its very easy to use. Its just what you need if you CD ROM drive is no longer working or you need and extra drive while you main CDROM drive is burning a disk.
Piece of Junk
I decided to purchase this because it was cheap and because the positive reviews outweighed the negative ones. Now I wish I'd paid more attention to the negative ones. As I just wanted to keep it on my desk, didn't care about listening to music or whether the thing made strange noises, I thought it would be fine. All I wanted was to use it to make backup disks for my laptop (which has no CD drive).
When I plugged in the drive, the computer recognised it with no problem, but when I inserted a CD, the drive immediately started making whirring noises, and the computer was unable to read the disk. I tried more than one disk just to be certain it was the drive, not the CD. The problem was definitely the drive.
While it's possible that some of these drives work fine, it doesn't seem worth the risk of getting a faulty piece of junk. It's a waste of time and money to return it even if it is possible to get a refund.
excellent item
Arrived in perfect condition and had everything included in the box, worked first time. Excellent piece of kit for either novice or experienced user.
