Samsung Laptop Without Dvd Drive

I mainly use this drive to watch DVD movies on my laptop. It has performed flawlessly.

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 a new laptop, no dvd drive. No problem, just ad this external drive when I need one.

Great drive. It sure beats the two USB connectors required to power the Samsung portable DVD drive.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this SSD Drive to replace a old 500GB WD Blue. What I like about the Samsung Drive is the Magician Software.It allows me to clone my old drive using a SATA to USB. Once I put the new Samsung drive in my laptop. The laptop loaded windows faster than my spinning hard drive and my program responce is smoother and quicker.

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.

I purchased a gaming laptop from B&H and yet it had no DVD drive so I needed one to rip, burn and play movies. I used it for 2 months straight and experienced no problems. It copies (non-protected) DVD's and reads and writes flawlessly. Highly recommended.

I bought this because I got a new laptop with no DVD drive and I still have the occasional need to read or write CDs or DVDs. I trust the ASUS name. It works just like an internal drive and I've had no issues with it. It's portable enough to travel.

It holds the laptop, power supply, mouse, microphone and external DVD drive without complaining.  It looks good.

I needed quality blank DVD's for my laptop and external burner, so having prior experience with Verbatim in the past, I choose this DVD RW pack. The RW means you can erase the and write to them again. So I can backup my computer in case of hard drive/external drive failure, verify it's working and re-write to them sagain.
