ASUS ZenDrive V1M External DVD Drive and Writer with Built-in Cable-Storage Design, USB-C Interface, Compatible with Win 11 and macOS, M-DISC Support (SDRW-08V1M-U)

Very good external DVD/CD drive. Very compact, very light (all plastic) and a kinda neat ‘pocket’ to stash the usb-c cord. Few things I’ve noticed after using it for a few days…1) it is so light you need to hold it down firmly when closing the tray2) I find it better to use 2 fingers/thumbs to close the tray3) sometimes gets a bit loud as the media spinsStill, I really like it and it works very well.

Bought a new laptop (LG Gram 17 inch 2022 32RAM 2TB) and I wanted to buy an external disc reader/writer for my library of well-preserved physical Rosetta Stone collections I've bought over the years. This worked perfectly for my needs. It works with Windows 11, is nice and compact, and stays in place very well.It doesn't move at all when switching out discs during installs.Easy to re-package and store safely in its original box until needed.I don't use it for anything other than what I explained above. However, if I did need it for any other purpose I'm confident it will complete the task. Price not too bad. Nice looking design, I like that the cord can store away, because as I said, I don't have it out except when I need to use it for a specific purpose.Very satisfied. Another quality ASUS product.

Muy necesario para laptops de nueva generación, quizás hay opciones mas baratas en otras marcas pero la diferencia de esta es la practicidad del puerto USB C y que es retráctil.

Very pleased with this product. Plugged it in and it worked - no problem. I like the way the cable recesses into the DVD player itself. The cable is quite short but I work from a laptop in the armchair, so it does sit nicely on the arm of the chair.

Connect with MacBook Pro purchased new in 2021, no drive pop up on screen, the drive can’t be find by multiple ways of searching. On the package it says compatible with Mac and Windows 11. Returned.
