Best Laptop Computer With An Optical Drive

Best optical solution I have used.

This computer replaced an 11 year old Envy. So far it's working great for me. I would have liked to have an optical drive but can purchase an external device

Open the box, open the computer, screw the card in, put the CD in the optical drive to load the driver, plug in the internet cable, Go.

Easily fits my old laptop, which is thicker that most because it's old enough to have an optical drive. On the side it fits the charging cable and my mouse. Now my laptop is protected along with my other equipment. I'm happy with the purchase and would recommend it.

Dropped this in the Optical Bay of a 2009 MacBookPro (along with a new battery) to breath a little more life in to a slow old laptop. This was a dream for the old machine!! Dropped it in the Optical Bay since that was no longer needed. Left the original 500GB in and use it as a second/storage drive. System now runs off this SSD and compared to what it used to be, absolutely screams in speed compared to the old hard drive. Was as quick fast install and works like a charm, definitely gave this 2009 laptop another 2-3 years of life as a basic internet/email/documents machine.

My Asus rog strix scar edition gaming laptop didn't come with a optical drive so I bought this as a replacement and it works awesome super fast and ready to go out of the box I would definitely recommend

I use this to keep my external hard drive connected to my laptop. I used to just let it hangout next to my computer. This is sooooo much better.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Best laptop for everyday. If you’re looking for something to last and keep up with your work this is the computer for you.

Best laptop I ever have.

Best experience with a Mac laptop since my original computer, a Mac Powerbook back in the late 1990s. Smoother, faster and a step above my current Mac Mini (16gb ram, 3+GHz, etc.). Does everything in Photoshop quickly and quietly, love the M1 chip and the Touch Bar, which I had avoided and didn't think I'd like but do. Very portable. Very cool. Very happy with my purchase. Those who bemoan the lack of connection ports should be assuaged by the many 3rd party plug-in USB C hubs on the market. They provide USB ports of every description as well as an SD card reader and an HDMI port for your monitor. These things look good and don't detract from the appearance of the computer, many of them look like they were designed to blend in with the computer, because they were.
