LG Electronics 8x USB 2.0 Super Multi Ultra slim portable DVD Writer drive +/-RW external drive with M-DISC support (black) GP60NB50.

Review: Affordable and reliable. - This external DVD-RW drive does just what I need it to. In an age where optical media is becoming obsolete, I'm glad I can still buy one of these, and for such a good price! I have had zero failed burns with many types of media thus far, including M-Discs. For the price, this is cheaper than some meals. I'm very satisfied and will be buying another as a backup! I highly recommend!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: IS this CDR or CD RW & DVD-R or DVD-RW (or both) 
AND 
does it burn and play BOTH cd's and DVD'S?  (Some don't and I need one that does)  Thanks SO MUCH!**
A: It will burn (and play) cd's and dvd's (including dual layer - I burned my first one yesterday). The box states DVD + R SL/DL, DVD + RW/-RW, DVD-RAM, CD-R/RW. Hope this helps.

**Q: Is this compatible with Windows 8.1?**
A: I know iam super late to this question but to anyone with this problem.... windows 8.1 is the steaming pile of crap here not the device. Upgrade to windows 10 already!!

**Q: what is m disk support**
A: It means that you may use a M-Disk with this device. The M-Disk or Millenia Disk is an optical disc that provides more media preservation (documents, pictures, recordings or any digital data). For more info on M-Disk check the linkhttp://www.networkcomputing.com/storage/mdisc-review-a-thousand-years-of-storage/d/d-id/1099593?

**Q: Is this work with window 10**
A: Just to piggyback off another response, the short answer is "yes".  I'll elaborate below, for those that want to read on:LG's website only advertises support for up to Windows 8.1, so I was a little nervous when i bought this along with a brand new HP Spectre x360 for my wife.  The Spectre x360 shipped with Windows 8.1, which I/we didn't want, and took the free upgrade to Win10 immediately.  However, my wife needs/needed this drive in order to install certain software on her new PC, as well as (eventually) to RIP/burn music and recordings.When I connect this device to her new ultrabook via USB, and then insert a program installation disc, the install program won't load automatically.  The standard "we detect a device, would you like us to use it" message doesn't pop up.  So I don't believe it's *fully supported* and *fully functional* (yet, although I'd expect some sort of firmware update from LG at some point, but that's obviously not a guarantee), but so far, I've been able to, fairly easily, use it to do what she needed to be able to do with it (namely, install programs that she needs for work via this drive).  Without an "auto-start" feature, I have to navigate to the drive using windows explorer, view what's on the disc, and then manually click to fire up the executable/install file myself, but once I do, the disc reads, the program installs, and my wife is off-to-the-races with her new Windows 10 laptop, thanks to this drive.But, the long answer is, it hasn't once *failed* to read a disc and operate properly for us.  It works.  You just have to be able to navigate to the drive and do whatever it is you're trying to do manually... not sure if that's a universal experience, or just specific to us.  Like I said, hopefully an HP update will make this a little more *plug-and-play* in the near future, but for now, if you like this drive's size-price-feature combination, like I did, and you need it to work with Win10, fear not.  It'll work.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great External Disc Drive
*by F***E on February 9, 2016*

LG Electronics USB Ultra Slim Portable DVD Rewriter, External Drive with M-DISC Support If you find yourself with a Macbook Air and a sudden need for a CD drive, look no further. I purchased one, thinking I wouldn’t miss the CD drive. As it turns out, I almost immediately found out one of my classes required the use of a program that came with the textbook for the class. Looking for a solution, I turned to Amazon. Enter the LG Electronics External Ultra Slim Portable DVD Rewriter! It fits into the USB drive on any device (the Air has plenty of those), and takes very little setup. I was able to use the device without any trouble to play any disc, and it worked great. The drive does have some potential downsides. While some reviews say it’s very quiet, you may notice it makes a whirring noise when in use. The noise is minor, and may only be distracting when it’s being used to play a movie. If you should find it annoying, a simple solution would be to set something on the player, which eliminates the noise completely. If you’re worried about the physical space taken up by the drive, it can be somewhat inconvenient. But for what it is, the space is minimal, especially compared to similar products. The USB cord isn’t very long at just over a foot, but judging from other reviews, this is also better than other products. Plus, given how slim the device is (only half an inch tall), this all allows for easy storage. I haven’t found a need for an especially long cord, so it hasn’t really posed a problem. Aside from the mild potential drawbacks the external drive has, it performs excellently and I’ve never had a problem with it. It also has a very low cost, which once again is better than many of the alternatives. I would highly recommend it. By the way, I ended up with two of these, so I sent one to my parents, who also had a computer without a CD drive. They haven’t had any problems with it, and say it works great.
