Outstanding external optical drive

This external Blu-Ray optical drive is excellent. It works well with my older laptops as well as with a new one.

Great portable disc player/burner

The device is great, and works as advertised. I've been riooing CDs and watching blu ray movies. I do have a prroblem with the Cyber software. It hangs, glitches, runs multiple instances and has to be managed through task manager frequently. I would recommend a different player/burner software. Nero used to be good. Don't know what its turned into lately.

Nice box - needs better instruction manual

nicely made unit with 2 connections but the instruction manual is lacking on why you have 2 plugs and where you put them.

Great player so far. I've played just DVDs so far and it works great. I wish the cord was a little longer though.

Good Drive but Feckless Bundled Software

The drive has good functionality and uses an additional USB port to offset its power draw during some applications. It also has an external power input socket. I would prefer its included instructions include mention of appropriate input power so that users could use external power at times instead of tying up two USB ports on their laptops. The provided software is useless as is its "free update" in WIN 11. Buyers are advised to buy the drive and appropriate software separately.

Good drive that doesn?t last

While it works, it works well. It however does not stand up well to a lot of use. This is my second one, previous unit just stopped working after about 8 months.

New Computer? Also get this Optical Drive

I really like this optical reader/writer! It is way more than I was expecting. I ordered this item separately (from my OMEN) and when it arrived I hurriedly unpacked it. I immediately noticed this drive had two USB cables, each one is about a foot long. How am I going to plug this into my OMEN? Oh well, Plug it into my Notebook. Install the software, get a blu-ray disk, start it up, and I'm watching a movie on my notebook. Whee! Talk about 'instant gratification', I'm hooked. I went back to the information on my new OMEN and found that the HP engineers have put two USB connections on the top of the case. YEA! (This unit will read/write CD, DVD, Blu-Ray, as well as high density [up to 120 GB] discs.)

Why do I like this drive?

Very slim lined drive allows you to remove easily and stow when not in use.

The product looks good but I've had no chance to use it yet. I bought this thinking I would use it for long term storage of photos and videos but the discs for it are expensive. I'm not sure if I will ever use it, only time will tell.

works well as expected. Since the All-in-one desk top did come with a dvd / blue ray drive this will be useful.

Works

It just works. I was disappointed that my wife's HP all in one did not come with a disk drive. This was a great solution. It sits on the base of the all-in-one. I just wish it was also sold in silver and white to match HP's style.

Works as advertised.

I'm going to have to rate this 5Stars. It does everything it's meant to do. It plays DVDs and Blu-Rays, i tested it. There's something in the box about not playing 4k Blu-Ray; i don't know how that's different from a regular Blu-ray. I know that once i installed the software it comes with i was able to play Blu-rays. The default player is annoying in that it tells you that it doesn't support a separate monitor, which it does. But like I said, it does what it's meant to do.

Would be nice if I were told what the second jack was for. Do I need to plug both of them in?

Buy a different cable for better performance.

This drive has potential with the correct cord. I am confused as to why they chose to go with the supplied cord and not a more efficient cable. The drive is capable of accepting a combo cable that most USB 3 external drives use. I am using a USB 3 cable instead of the one supplied. Other than that this drive performs well.
