## Description

desertcart.com: YOTUO External CD/DVD Drive, Portable USB 3.0 & USB-C CD RW Drive, DVD Player, DVD Burner for Laptop, Desktop, Compatible with Windows 7/8/10/11, Mac, MacBook Pro/Air, Linux (IDD029-2) : Electronics

Review: Cheap and reliable for those who cant use an internal dvd drive - Does exactly what it is supposed too, i use it to burn data disks and burn dvds. Its speed is a little slow feeling, but i do believe thats my own bias of not having to rely on disks for installing software anymore. Cheap, and convenient if you cant have an internal disk drive.
Review: Laptop-Style Drive - Sure, I'll write a review. I plugged it in and it works, first time! Just like it's always been a part of the computer. Nothing to install, no need for additional power outlet, runs off USB. No software included, but for what? Essentially what you have here is your typical laptop-style drive, meaning, you snap the CD\DvD to the spindle and push the drawer in. Watched a DvD movie on it last night, even paused it a couple times, no problems. Update: Okay I had some problems develop a few weeks after use: 1) wouldn't read disc. 2) ejected disc, ejected disc so much I couldn't keep it closed, ejected on boot up, ejected in middle of a movie! 3) started vibrating like it was exceeding its RPM. Then, I turned it over, removed three screws and re-seated the drive in the connector, and closed it back up, and so far it's been quiet and playing nicely. Okay, Love It!! This drive and VLC makes for a great DvD movie player!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great to have around, reliable and compact.
*by W***H on December 14, 2025*

I haven't owned any DVDs for at least ten years now, but every once in a while I need to access files or an ancient archive disc and this little unit saves my bacon. It's never failed to read my discs, some of them over 25 years old! The cables tuck away very nicely. And it needs no external energy source. I haven't tried burning a DVD but it's amazing to me that this inexpensive device can do that. And when the AI take over, you may want a way to keep digital info off of the cloud. XD
