LG GP60 External DVD Drive, Slim Portable DVD Burner/Writer/Player for Laptop, Windows and Mac OS Compatible, USB 2.0, 8X Read/Write Speed - Black

Set the above drive up as directed, made easier by having access to driver disc. First use was uploading some cds to iTunes on my windows 11 pc, no problems worked straight away. would definitely recommend this drive.

Plug and play straightforward with my MacBook. The unit wor kk s well with CDs but I have not tried DVD yet

I've just bought a lovely gaming PC but it never crossed my mind that they don't tend to come with CD/DVD drives anymore. This would be a problem as I like to import my CDs into iTunes so I purchased this drive for what was a low price from a reliable brand. It plugs it via a standard USB (no need for additional power) and works effectively and in relative silence. When not in use, I simply put it into storage. Does a great job and much easier (and cleaner on the looks) than putting a drive into my actual gaming PC.

Item as described. Working well so far with no issues. Easy to set up.

Perfect!

Item arrived quickly but it was sent in the original box with no protection. I was immediately annoyed because it just happens this is for me but imagine if I wanted to give this as a present to someone. Box is completely battered from the postage and travel. It comes with a cyberlink suite disc but I've not used it as I have my own DVD CD burner software. The device worked straight from the box and is very light weight with a decent connector cable. It's looks slimmer than other devices I had before. I connected to my HP envy laptop with windows 11 and it worked immediately. At the time of writing this review I managed to write 8 music CDs of my own production and it's taken less than 20 minutes. The instructions are useless but with a bit of intuition we can get around any issues. The device doesn't say anywhere that it's a DVD CD writer so I'm going to have to stick a label. The box states it can connect to a TV and be used as a DVD player but that is not true. My TV wouldn't even recognise it. So far it's working ok and it's not damaged any CD like the other burner I was using before. It not very noisy but it's makes a noticeable fan noise which is typical to CD burners. I'll update when I use the cyberlink media suite that comes with it and when I try to burn DVDs too.

After weeks of trying to find the right external drive for a new laptop I was about to give up (too many 1-star reviews mostly) when I found this little beauty. It installed on Win10 in about 5 seconds, and was working without installing anything else. It comes with the Cyberlink Media Suite but I already have perfectly good software to cover these functions so have not bothered with installing it. It is very, very quiet; closes without the usual struggle to get it to latch; accesses the disc very fast and is extremely well constructed (especially: the drawer does not flap about when open). Like all such drives it is a little delicate - the penalty for being light enough to carry around in a laptop bag all day. Nothing indicates to me that this one is any weaker than the others, and may even be a bit less vulnerable on the top surface. I recommend without reservation. It may be a few pounds more expensive than most others, but that is money well spent. 10 out of out 10.

Works but no mention of it being non pal region and coming from another country. it rips (so far) but is much slower as make mkv has to do work arounds. Bought exactly thr same one about 9 months ago and was perfect untill ripped my whole dvd collection whocj was alot.

Funktioniert hervorragend. Das Laufwerk ist im normalen Betrieb kaum zu hören. Die Geschwindigkeit ist vollkommen ok.

Mooie externe cd brander. Werkt goed

Fungerar prickfritt när jag kopplar den till min dator. Snabb.

Funciona perfectamente. 100% compatible con Linux. Incluso es compatible con el Eversolo Dmp A6 de primera generación. Sirve como lector del eversolo o ripeador

Does what it should, a bit fiddly to open and insert/extract DVD but it is compact so not surprising.
