Asus Notebook With Dvd Drive

I bought this DVD Drive to go along with an ASUS ZenBook Pro UX501VW DS71T laptop which doesn't include an internal DVD drive. This DVD drive is barely the size of a DVD disk. It matches nicely with the laptop. It comes with a software disk and a USB splitter cable (you will need two USB ports available on your computer to use this drive). It is well constructed and functions beautifully. The included software is optional. This drive is plug and play, however, my laptop didn't come with Windows DVD Player software. No Problem... I downloaded a highly downloaded free DVD software suite and it works perfectly. It does what I bought it to do. It is not a blue-ray player though. If that is important to you, you'll need to pick another drive.

I recently bought this to replace the aging HDD in my Asus G73JW notebook (almost 9 years old). This drive is just as amazing as you would think it should be. I went from booting WIN10 in roughtly 2-3 minutes to about 30s. Thirty three seconds to be exact, from power on to the WIN10 login screen. One minute after that all of my background apps are loaded.

As my new Asus laptop didn't have a DVD drive, I bought this unit as it was the same brand of my laptop and the price was very attractive. Works as expected.

Bought this drive to replace a 10 year old Asus dvd-rw drive. I am in the process of backing up my CD collection, and the old drive wasn't happy after a few solid days of ripping. Once I installed this drive, I was ripping 5x faster! Approx. 5-15 minutes per CD, and with NO errors. It does slow down a little after about 5 consecutive rips, which puts it in the 10-15 min. Range. Have not tested bluray or dvd functions so I can't comment on those capabilities.

I love the ASUS ZenDrive V1M External DVD Drive. So far, it works great with my ASUS laptop. It is well made; and awesome how the connecting USB type C cable has an inbuilt casing.

My OS 10.15.6 didn't want to recognize this ASUS DVD drive. So I called ASUS and got excellent help. Finally it showed up on my computer w/o either the technician or me knowing how we got it recognized. It reads CD's and DVD's well and is light weight and compact. So I'm happy with it. Haven't tried disc burning yet.

I haven't really used it yet, but it looks like it will serve me well. One of my USB drives quit working on my notebook and I needed to have several available when using an external DVD burner/player. It should work, but I do like the size and configuration of the hub.

Purchased this specifically to watch DVD's on our MacBook Pro. Our old Macbook had a dvd drive built in. Living off grid; its nice not to have to go online in order to watch a movie. Works very well. Thank you.

Great drive for the price and addition for DVD BU.
