ROOFULL True USB 3.0 External CD DVD Drive for Laptop, USB-C Portable CD Disc Reader Writer Burner DVD Player CD/DVD-RW (Not Just ROM) Drive for Windows 11/10 PC Mac MacBook Linux Computer, ECD829-Y

Work's amazing with iMac and MacBook Pro. Easy to use and self plug and use, I forgot how to use computer eject button not the device eject button. haha

This product is from a reputable company. The product retained the first disc I attempted to read, a simple DVD. After a few back-n-forth conversations on failed attempts to fix this problem, they promptly sent a new replacement device without requirement to send the malfunctioning device back. It came in less than 48 hours!So, in all, I recommend this company and their products - their support is swift, competent, and honest.

The setup was incredibly easy; I just plugged it in via USB 3.0, and it was ready to go. It also comes with a USB-C cable, which was great because my laptop has USB-C ports, and I didn’t have to worry about any adapters.The drive is compact and portable, so I can easily toss it in my bag when I need it. I’ve used it for both reading and writing discs, and it works perfectly. It reads DVDs and CDs quickly and plays my music and videos without any issues. I also used it to burn a few files to a CD, and the process was smooth with no interruptions.I’ve only knocked off one star because it’s a bit noisy when burning a CD or DVD, but it’s not overly disruptive. Overall, this is a reliable external drive for anyone who needs one for their laptop or desktop, especially since it works across various operating systems like Windows, Mac, and Linux. Would definitely recommend it for those needing an affordable, easy-to-use external drive.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:This was easy to plug in an start working.I use it with my Mac air🤙🏽

I tried the other cheaper drives and despite what they say about working with Mac, they don’t. This drive did without issue and even had the correct cord as they others did not. I have a 2022 MacBook Air running os Sonoma 14+ and I was able to see the drive within a few seconds. I was trying to read a cd rom with X-rays on it, and I needed to download a (free) program in order to see the pictures but that took 2 seconds. Just google the program you need to read Xrays and it will pop up. Small and not noisy. I’d buy again if I needed another one for some crazy reason.

I ordered this DVD/CD writer/player for my MacBook Air to rip my cd collection into my computer as well as home video DVD's. The description is clear that it works with Windows/Mac/Linux, however, I could not get it to play a cd on my MacBook.The drive recognized every CD that I inserted, however, when I would try to play or rip the cd, it would lock up. I would need to restart my software as well as unplug & replug the drive. I've tried with several CD's, both old and new, and had the exact same result. I returned the drive for a replacement. I tried the replacement, which made a grinding noise when the disc was inserted, and it worked the same, when it worked at all.I don't know if this unit will work with windows as I don't have a windows PC, however, I would steer clear of this drive if you are using a Mac.

it works

I've been using various media since the days of loading BASIC programs from punched paper tape, so this can't really be true, but it sure seems as if this is the absolute slowest drive i've ever used.572 MB of AIFF music tracks just took 14 minutes to copy from CD to a folder.That's over a minute per song track.Do you suppose it's copying files to a server overseas and then back to my desktop?
