Rating: - Operation is a snap, but it is very noisy
Setting up this external drive is almost too easy. It took me longer to unpack the drive than to set it up. Just plug in the USB cable and you are done. Operation has been flawless so far and I have already used the drive a lot just to test it out.

excellent product except that the user instructions were embedded in the nero disk ...i never have been able to find instructions for using nero software so i removed it and am using my windows media player instead

Rating: - A pleasure to use....
This external DVD drive is attractive, easy to use and performs very well. Has performed flawlessly in fairly heavy use over the past month or so. A good choice!
