Wbacon 2 in 1 External CD/DVD Drive for Laptop, USB 3.0 Typ-c CD RW Drive

I just got around to using my new CD drive and it does not disappoint. I went on vacation to the Middle East 20 years ago (wouldn't go today) and had taken over 1500 pictures and had burned them to three CDs. Had not seen these pictures in years and now that CD drives are not usually in laptops, I bought this external drive to view my pictures. This external drive was not very expensive so I figured I would try it out on my pictures. It great! It does everything that I need and more. All you have to do is plug it in to the side of your laptop, put your CD in, and up comes the D drive and your pictures. No different than if I had a built in CD player. Great investment!

It does plug and play just as described! Started working quickly, easily compatible with my new-build PC. Seems durable, and it's a nice bonus that the cord tucks into the bottom, so the drive stores clean and flush. This was a great deal & so far I'm happy with my purchase.

Plugged it in, downloaded a free video player, and it worked immediately so the "plug and play" concept works well. The eject button on the device itself works, but also can eject via the accessories shortcut on taskbar. It is small so will be easily packed for travel, which is what we bought it for. We are staying at a cabin for a few nights, and the bunkhouse room my sons stay in doesn't have a TV so this portable player paired with my old laptop is an easy (and cheap) solution. Will update if it fails or otherwise disappoints; but, thus far, it's a win.

...for a simple & unusually economical item of it's type (...was taking a chance on this...), the overall quality of the item seems more than fairly durable. Initial set-up & test play was quite satisfactory. The ultimate 'litmus test' on this item however, as far as it's overall use-life, remains to be seen. My expectations have been low before, as far as items like this...with the occasional item, genuinely & positively surprising the heck out of me. Here's hoping that this will be yet another such occasion...

Nothing not to like about this CD/DVD device. I needed one because I do have some "legacy" applications on CD. Since you cannot purchase a new laptop with a built-in player anymore, I needed one of these to accommodate the old discs since I just bought a new laptop. Was pleasantly surprised at the build quality, simplicity and overall design. It even has this cool looking "swirl" design on the top. It has a cable with ""dual"" plugs, a legacy USB and a USB-C. And what's great about that it that there is a cutout channel underneath the player where the cable actually fits perfectly! I plugged this thing in, and it worked perfectly, no fuss, no muss. Hard to imagine doing better than this for the price. Highly recommended.

It worked great the first week that I had it. Was able to burn a few CDs. I even left it sitting on my desk, just 8 inches from where it plugs in. Tried it again tonight and it just makes some noises before eventually stopping with an error. I even rebooted my PC. It's just dead. I feel like I wasted my money on it at this point, but live and learn, I guess.

Works well

Picked up an old computer game at a library sale last year and needed something to run it on my 2021 Lenovo ThinkPad so I could play it and this disc drive was the perfect fit. It can easily read the disk and it works like a charm.

Doesn’t read Blu-ray Discs

Nice design. Seems well made. Truly plug and play on my Windows 11. Having USB A and USB C options to plug it in makes connecting very versatile. Storage of cable flatly within the rear of the case (see picture) is an amazingly good design. Works well in my limited use. Given that this item is at the very cheap end of the scale, longevity is unknown so I would assess it as suitable for occasional use, but apparent quality suggests it may stand more frequent use. I am very satisfied with the purchase.

Compact, fonctionne parfaitement, très contente !

Je n'ai pas pu utiliser le lecteur car il ne lit rien, ni les blu-ray ni les DVD. Très déçu. Le colis est arrivé quand j'étais en vacances je suis revenu après délai de 15 jours, j'ai payé le transport et je ne suis pas certain qu'il va arriver car l'étiquette destinataire n'est pas française donc j'ai tout perdu, le prix de l'appareil et le prix du transport, très déçu...

For the price, this thing really does the work. Fast, easy and comes with usb and usb-c, all hidden in the back of the product. Would seriously recommend!
