Worked with SOME difficulties... exactly one time. Helpful advice on getting the tray to open!
Had a bit of a snafu with this one at first. You know, wouldn't wanna open a bit, swapped USB ports around some, still wouldn't open. Hooked it up to an external battery bank to power it up and get it open, then no problems after that.Until the second time I wanted to use it. Plugged it in, put a disc in, and it immediately stopped working. Light would come on, some noises would be heard, and nothing. It would not open, it would not be detected by anything. I tried four different USB ports including ones directly connected to my motherboard, three different devices, a battery bank AND a battery bank with a computer connection to my motherboard, all of this accomplished nothing.So my disc was trapped inside of the device; which stopped functioning, and I couldn't get it open. Holding down the button of course, did nothing too. More noises, lights, would never open or do anything beyond making noises. I almost called Amazon customer support to ask what I could do about returning it, when I instead saw a tiny pinhole on the front. Then it struck me!GETTING THE TRAY TO OPEN MANUALLYOkay so if you're in my situation? Here's what you do! Grab yourself a Sim Card Tray Needle, if you have one lying around of course! If you've purchased a phone recently or held onto that pinhole needle that came with an old phone, you can use that pinhole needle for opening your disc tray too. If you DON'T have this, you can purchase some online for a cheap price. Shove that into the hole on the front of the disc drive by the button. You may need to go in deep or wiggle it some, but it SHOULD then open the disc drive.I recommend holding it at an angle so the tray will gently fall open while doing this. This way you won't accidentally close it shut again while using the pinhole needle, or keep it from opening and not realize it. If all goes well it'll release, and you can get your disc out of the device. Now, your mileage may vary, but please do try this before attempting drastic measures or losing a disc. Especially if you intend to return this device, like I do!In short? This drive is awful, despite the minor problems I liked it quite a bit at first; but this entire situation evaporated any goodwill I had towards it. I seldom leave reviews, but I wanted to provide assistance to anyone who may find themselves in the situation I did. If you are, I hope this helps you in some way. If you're looking to buy this? Don't.

Broke after barely using it / Customer service was fast
Used it about 3 times when I first got it, played dvds fine on my macbook air. Put it away for a few months, just plugged it in again and flashed a yellow light and clicked. Tried on a different computer and still with the clicking. Do not recommend. Waste of money.Update 10/29 Customer service reached out and refunded the product. Thank you.

Usb Blu-ray drive
12/6/24So, I got this because I have tons of dvds and a lot of my computers/laptops don't have cd/dvd drives, or, at least my more modern computers that have windows 10 and I like to watch dvds on my computer.

Truly a Plug ‘n Play (MacBook Pro)
It says it is Plug ‘n Play and it really is. I literally plugged it in my MacBook Pro, put in a DVD and it started playing. The picture could be clearer but it could be a low quality DVD. At any rate, I’m thrilled that it does what it claims.Edit: I did have to download a software program to use on Blu-Ray discs. I had only used it on regular dvd’s. However, super easy to make it work and I’m not tech savvy. 😊

Wants you to pay for software
Player forces you to download "free" software that spams you to pay $80 for it just to use.

Great Portable Player
I took it right out of the box and plugged it into my laptop and popped in my favorite DVD. My computer immediately recognized the player. The software started right up and I played my DVD. The playback was flawless.I like that the player has both a USB plug as well as a USB-C plug. I have tested it on three different laptops and it works great on all of them.I recommend this for anyone looking for a good portable player.
