NOLYTHExternal CD/DVD Drive for Laptop: USB-C Portable Slim Slot-in CD Burner with USB 3.0 Adapter - Aluminum Alloy Plug & Play +/- RW Superdrive for Apple Mac MacBook Windows(Grey)

My original review is below. Here is my update: While this particular drive didn't work for me because of it not having an eject button. The company was great. They sent me a new drive that does have an eject button and tray at no cost to me. This new drive works perfectly and is exactly what I needed.Original review: This drive worked once, then would no longer read the disk. Had to physically take apart the drive to retrieve the disk. A total waste of money. Please be warned that there is no manual eject. No other methods of ejection such as code in terminal or utilities worked either.

I have used it his product for several months now. It performs faultlessly. I am extremely satisfied with this purchase and strongly recommend to those in need of a dependable, well built external DVD drive matching these specifications.I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. Arrived speedily. Works well. As advertised, set up is simple plug and play. CDs play and eject well.Durable, well designed product. It comes with a very nice case.My unit is gray. This matches well with my new MacBook Pro.Also, I have communicated with the company regarding a question. I received a quick, clear and courteous response.Good company. A great deal. I highly recommend!!!

I used it once. Worked fine. The next time I tried to use it, I literally couldn't insert the disc. Something inside was malfunctioning and preventing me from inserting the disc. I sent an email to the company email found in the instruction manual. Waited and and waited with no response. Returning.

I'm a happy camper with this! I just burned a 1965 oldies hits album to my 2019 16" MBP laptop & I'm listening to it as I type.. Before that, I viewed a 25 yr-old cd with photo files. All uploaded easily.Here's what you get:DVD drive with permanently attached USB-c plug,Optional USB plug (see photo)Well- padded, zippered caseOwner's manual in broken English - but all you need to know is there if you have patience to figure out what they are trying to say. I had no issue..TIPS:1. When you plug drive in, nothing will show up on your screen until you put a cd/dvd in the drive, so don't despair!2. EJECTing: there's no manual eject button on the drive; you eject from your computer.On my MBP (running OS Catalina) I eject from Finder, or drag drive's icon to the trash.HUGE CATCH: But in order to eject, I have to FLIP THE DRIVE OVER (black side up).This is in the owner's manual (pg 5 under "Disk was Stuck".)No clue if all of these operate this way, but the fact that it's mentioned means they know of issue...To me, not a deal-breaker.The usb-c plug fits a bit too snug imo into the port (not sure this is harmful to the laptop)Initially, I was thinking of returning the drive due to the "flip over to eject" issue, but having gone went thru hell trying to connect my Apple Super Drive to my laptop to no avail, I decided to get a drive with a usb-c plug. (Apple says the Super Drive is compatible with the newer MBP's..if it is no adapter worked) After hours on the phone with Apple, with them trying to trouble-shoot, I finally gave up & ordered this drive.If you also failed to get your USB Apple Super Drive to connect to your usb-c-only MBP (I tried with the Satechi adapter Apple sold me!!) , then this cheap little drive works, so I don't mind having to flip it over to eject disks at this point.I thought I would never be able to play cd's or watch movies on this new MBP laptop since Apple took away the internal cd/dvd player that older MBP & others had. Some people prefer to play our cd collection amassed over the years, rather than spend more money for the same songs they already own..Young people don't seem to get it.Finally, people should READ MANUALs before posting bad reviews, as most issues are covered!

It works as expected but is much quieter than expected. Fully satisfied with it.Primary use is ripping DVDs for home Plex server.

This external DVD drive is a great little device. It's small enough to fit in my laptop bag, and it's easy to use. It's compatible with both Macs and Windows PCs, and it reads and writes CDs and DVDs. It's a great little drive for anyone who needs to read or write optical discs.

Estoy muy contento con el producto, es de muy buena calidad.

This external drive looks good and seems to be well built. It has the slot for the disc which I like. Problem is I have had several music CDs get stuck in it. My MacBook Pro doesn't seem to be able to read it and just keeps cycling. With no eject button, the Apple IOS does little to help out. I found a terminal command "drutil eject". That works about half the time. Luckily my son has a Win10 PC and it not only can read the CD that my Apple book couldn't but can also eject it.
