After downloading Windows SP3, my dvd-rom drive no longer worked. I spent hours online with an "expert" from Microsoft trying to fix the problem.

It worked perfectly and I would highly recommend this compact unit.

This worked great for me, I haven't tried the dvd playback yet but it reads cd's nicely. I didn't have to install anything. I would have liked it to write dvd's, but I already have an internal dvd-r so this was fine for what it is. I once had an issue with a targus product and they sent me a new part for free with the shipping. It ended up being a good experience so I went with the name as well as the product on this one.
Rating: - Would recommend.
Purchased to use with my laptop which did not have a cd drive. Worked great with is plug and play ability. Also no software installation required for operation was a plus. I would recommend this product for the ease of use.
