Questions & Answers

Can it be used on a Mac ?

George, It is great to hear from you again. You're right, Stuart!

What type of Blu-ray players does this have?

Thanks for your enquiry. This is just a normal DVD drive, not a blue ray drive, so it cannot play blue ray movies. Our shop has an external blu ray drive that works with USB C. If you need it, you should check our shop for it. We also sell an external Tv tuner. Thanks a lot

The product does what it is advertised to do
5/5

As you can see from this DVDs can be loaded into the drive as expected. As far as I know, I've had no problems reading or burning DVDs. Through my USB connection, I am able to connect to this Using OS 10. 2, I was able to plug in the C port on my iMac. There are two regions in California Voici a few points I like USB connection allows the drive to be accessed immediately - C ports are supposed to be faster than USB 2 or 3 ports, 2) they are dead quiet, 3) they work out of the box with no power supply, and 4) they can be used with the USB port that comes with it It reads and burns DVDs just fine with the C to USB adapter connected to a USB 2 port, and 5) it works just as well with a USB 3. 0 port. Due to the nature of this Be sure the DVD drive is on a flat surface before you load it. It is necessary to have support for the tray on the front to prevent the tray from bending when the DVD is inserted into the drive. I haven't encountered any problems because I am using this drive on a desk and I have excellent support for the tray with the tray door wide open. Putting a DVD in your computer's DVD drive will be challenging if you are traveling and don't have a flat surface (you could put your PC on your lap, for instance). You may want to consider a slot machine if that is your situation The DVD drive has been loaded.

It is a piece of rubbish
3/5

We had it only a few days and it would only read disks half of the time. One time it would work and the next it would not. This POS would cut out whenever I was in the middle of downloading. Would not recommend that you buy it.

OS High Sierra is not a go
3/5

My MacBook Air will use this keyboard. The optical drive does not seem to want to work in High Sierra, the operating system I'm currently using. Upon arrival, there was no visible damage to the item. The USB cable is hooked up to my computer My computer recognizes CD and DVD drives through the USB port and even tells me what the title of the disk is when I insert a CD or DVD. As soon as I click on the viewer, it will say that it is not permitted, followed by another window taking me to a selection screen. The drive is set to Region 1 by default, which is why all of my disks are written for it, yet nothing can be played. Multiple disks were tested with the same result. After refreshing my Macbook, according to the directions in the user guide that I received by email, neither of those actions helped. They never responded to my customer service request, so now I'm returning it for a full.

It was as if it was born out of a box! There is no CD ripping speed greater than 8x on the I'm in love with this little device
5/5

A Mac allows me to digitize my old CD collection. This can only be done at a speed of 8x using iTunes. My MacBook Pro (2017) doesn't seem as fast as I would have liked, but it works well with my computer and I can let it run in the background while I am working. Despite this, Mac users do not need any drivers. I used it straight out of the box, and it worked great! Besides DVDs, I haven't tested any other media.

I think this is a very good This player is way more expensive compared to the last external DVD/CD player I had! Due to the fact that it stopped ejecting or opening the drawer to retrieve my CDs, I had a bad feeling about it but took a chance on this one since its description seemed to meet Fast shipping and a sturdy box made it easy to open after ordering
5/5

The player was shipped in a padded travel case, so I felt that the seller and manufacturer were professional right from the start. As soon as I'd selected my region of the world (that was super easy), I pressed play on the DVD. This is also a very easy process. I was able to eject without issue and get a quality picture. You should try this if you haven't already. My sincere thanks go out to.

The drive is a waste of time
3/5

The drive has been a problem from the beginning. I have a 2019 Mac Book Pro without a DVD/CD drive, so I purchased this "highly" rated drive. The drive has consistently failed to work well He is extremely sensitive about opening the DVD case to load it. As a result, it can no longer be opened. It is not possible to provide technical support It is real. There is something I don't like about this product and I I DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE TO BUY THIS FRAUD.

Choosing a vendor that honors the two-year warranty is an important decision
4/5

When technology changes, this is what happens. Now that my computer has no internal hard drive, I have no option but to use my collection of CDs and DVDs, and I'm resisting the idea of investing in a player for my new living room My initial thought was that the product would be a good solution, but after owning it for 3 months with very little use, it no longer worked. This resulted in the device being rendered useless since it could not power on nor open. Having seen other reviews that mentioned the same problem, I was hesitant to purchase it, but hey, we're at the point now where it's rare for any Amazon product to escape negative reviews, so I took the chance to buy it. In order to ensure that those who complain before fully exploring their options are aware that the warranty on this device is 2 years, and the company is very gracious about honoring it. The Amazon listing includes an email address you can use to get in touch with them. My plug and play device wouldn't play when plugged in, so I sent them a video and a new one was shipped to me. The following is the full version. Hopefully my second device will provide better service than the first.

A winner has been selected! This burner burned a CD from my MacBook Pro 2011's iTunes library perfectly
5/5

I had bought a few different cd/dvd burning devices and they wouldn't work with it. Does not have any problems playing DVDs. I can upload music to iTunes with no problems. Although I don't see how it could be unable to do so, I work within an industry where data CDs are given to me regularly, so hopefully this will be able to read them and extract the information. (I haven't tested this part yet, but will update my review if any problems arise).
