Works as well as an internal CD/DVD drive

I got this because my computer case is not set up in such a way as to allow me to install an internal CD/DVD player and yet I have loads of discs and movies that I'd like to use/watch on my computer. Simply put, this thing works exactly as any other internal CD/DVD drive would, and the system actually recognizes it the same way it would an internal, so genuinely there is nothing to complain about. It's as straight forward as you'd imagine. You plug it into a USB 2 or 3+ slot and it just works. That's pretty much what you want from one of these!
