External CD DVD Drive for Mac Laptop, USB 3.0 & USB-C CD DVD Reader Writer Burner Player ROM/RW Portable Optical Disc Drive for Apple MacBook Pro, iMac, Windows 11/10/8/7 Computer PC, White

If you have a Windows 10 PC and need an external CD/DVD drive, this is the one for you! The Rooful External CD/DVD drive is as simple and easy as it gets - just plug it into a USB-C (or USB 3.0) port and Windows instantly recognizes the newly-connected drive. A few additional pros: - It is very lightweight. - The cable fits nicely into a cutout on the bottom of the drive, making it very easy to store and carry. - Both data and power come from the single USB-C (or USB 3.0) cable. There is no need for a separate power cable or bulky adapter. A few additional thoughts: - Just as with any CD/DVD drive in Windows, you must have the right software to read from or write to discs. This is not a limitation of this product - it's a well-known and long-standing "feature" of Windows. The instructions sheet that arrived with my drive included recommendations to 3 separate CD/DVD software players. If you are unable to overcome this then you should contact your child or grandchild for assistance! - I would highly recommend purchasing a padded carry case for this drive if you plan to store or carry it. Just like any other electronic equipment it could be easily damaged from bouncing around in a laptop bag unless it's properly protected. I found links to several of these cases in the "Related Products" links on the Amazon product page. - The performance of this drive is much slower than internal drives. Again, this is a limitation of the design (external/USB), not a deficiency of this product. - The cover of the model I purchased is White, like really White. I couldn't tell from the product photo whether it was gray or white. My laptop is gray and I was hoping to get a match, but there didn't seem to be a gray option (only black and white). This is not a problem, just an observation. Bottom line - this product works exactly as expected and is a perfect solution, especially for this price point!

I have thousands of cds and am still in the world of burning cds, importing cds into my iTunes library., as well as DVDs. I've been using an LG external cd/dvd drive for years. A few weeks ago, I replaced my outdated iMac with a 24-inch 2023 iMac. And immediately was thrown into a panic because the LG drive was not compatible. Thinking that the obvious answer was to just buy an Apple external drive, I was really surprised and disheartened to learn that their drive was also not compatible with my brand new computer. I am not ready to give up on my cd existence, but the Apple rep led me to believe it would be difficult to find a "third party" external drive that would be compatible. After doing some research, I sent a detailed inquiry to Roofull and got back a wonderful and encouraging response. When I got the Roofull drive, I connected it to my computer and it was instantly connected. I've since burned cds and dvds. It works beautifully and is extremely user friendly, in fact even better than the LG drive I'd been using. Anyone who faces my problem, given the vanishing world of discs, should get this Roofull drive. It's wonderful and a real saving moment for me.

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.

This is a great product, affordable and it does what its supposed to do. I do not have a CD player in my new car so I used this to extract my music from the CD's put it on a USB Flash drive and then plug that USB drive into my car to play my tunes. Works great!! For those with newer cars that don't have a CD player, this is a great option.

Worked great on my Mac!

Needed a new CD/DVD player/burner for my desktop MAC after my old one wasn't reading some of my DVDs and this one had the best recommendations and more good reviews than bad. Sadly, it arrived, fully sealed in its packaging but with two of three connectors on its front grill (where the button is) completely unconnected. I was not able to get them to attach. Still, I put a relatively new DVD in and it loaded. I saw the studio logo and the FBI notice, then just a black screen. Tried a second DVD and this time a pop-up told me I needed to change the device's region from 2 to 1. Shouldn't it have been set to 1? When I did that, the film began to play. Presuming that was the issue, I put the previous DVD in. Still a black screen. I tried a third and a fourth and they just rolled around inside like it couldn't read them at all. Getting a refund and I will go back to shopping DIFFERENT brands.

I bought this in December. Inexpensive. Lightweight. Simple to use; just plug it in with the provided usb/usb-c cord & it boots right up. E-mailed the manufacturer (per insert in the box) & received a 2 year warranty. Happy with the purchase.

Delivered on time. Reasonable cost. Has two connectors USB A and USB 3.0 on the cable from the DVD player to connect to the computer. I couldn't get it to mount initially but it was user error, I hadn't seated the DVD properly. Once I realized that it worked perfectly as a plug and play.

i still like cds, so going away was a problem. this played cds and dvds. so plenty to listen to when getting going, then watch when winding down. was a brilliant choice. just used with laptop. should connect with mobile also. at this point i am happy enough not to doubt it

LOVE IT!

Roofull is a big BOGUS and FRAUD for their warranty and don't ever purchase of any products from them

Great unit and exactly what I was looking for. It wasn't a plug and play set up for me, so I contacted customer service who were very prompt and helpful. I had to do an extra steps after inserting both the DVD USBs in my computer --> This pc | devices & drives | right click D: DVD Drive | Open. After completing those steps it worked like a dream on both my Windows 10 laptops. Have used it everyday for the last week and everything is going well.

I bought some music recently, and it was only available on CDs. I don't have a disc reader on my laptop but I do have a PS4, so I thought it would work on there. Once the CDs arrived, I popped them into my PS4 but they didn't play. Surprisingly, the PS2 can play CDs, but the PS4 cannot, so I ordered this. The disc reader itself is super solid. Feels pretty good, can't tell you anything about the materials they use but it feels high quality. I was worried because many other readers apparently had issues with connecting and even reading discs, so I had low expectations. I've had it for a week, and so far so good. I ripped my two albums, watched some movies all without any issues. It's plug and play, which is great. Some disc readers I looked at had reviews saying that Windows wouldn't detect the reader, but this one worked first try, with no disc in it. Highly recommend for whenever you need to play your forgotten media.
