Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

I am 100% satisfied with the drive, but the online trade was disappointing: I ordered the Retail version, but they brought the OEM, and the Retail version is indicated in the receipt! In addition, the drive came crumpled in the area of ​​​​the connectors (seen in the photo). Disappointed with the store

Pros
  • Reads even old and scratched discs that other drives cannot even recognize. MDISK support. Strict appearance, suitable for many cases. If there is no access to the optical drive, it automatically goes into sleep mode with reduced power consumption.
Cons
  • Noisy, but this applies to all drives, especially during the recording process.

Good product at a good price, I recommend to try it.

Works on the old computer for 9 years. I decided to take a new one of this brand. In its price category, the best brand. The drive reads well, writes, excellent. Standard design, the tray closes and opens when foreign objects are accidentally ingested or the disc is unevenly installed.

Pros
  • The best brand in its price range. Although the drive is not one of those components where you need to rack your brains. Unless, of course, you need to write a thousand blanks.
Cons
  • Old discs are read with great noise and creaking.

I definitely recommend buying, I didn't notice any disadvantages.

In our time, CD-ROM is considered by many to be no longer a necessary element of a PC. But nevertheless, it is still used for work (the transfer of electronic versions is often prescribed in contracts) There are also a bunch of old archives, both work and family + I have an old car, there is a CD changer for 6 discs and no USB. Until recently, my wife had a CD on the PC, but his time has come and the tray began to live its own life. I soon realized that CD is still in demand for us. We bought 2

Pros
  • - inexpensive; - stable work;
Cons
  • There are no obvious ones, except that I didn’t like that the indicator is green, while the vast majority of cases have blue indicators

Everything in the product suited me, the price is generally perfect.

The drive itself has my complete and utter satisfaction, but my experience with the online transaction was less than ideal. I had ordered the Retail version, but they sent me the OEM version, despite the fact that the receipt specifies that I should have received the Retail version. In addition to that, the drive arrived crushed around the connections where it was attached (seen in the photo). Dissatisfied with the retail establishment

Pros
  • Reads even worn out and scratched discs, which most other drives are unable to identify at all. MDISK support. A formal appearance that is applicable in a variety of contexts. In the event that the optical drive is unable to be accessed, the device will enter a sleep mode in which it will consume significantly less power.
Cons
  • Although this is true for all drives, the level of noise is most noticeable during the recording process.

As such, there are no disadvantages, it is convenient to use.

works for 9 years on the outdated computer. I made the decision to buy another of this brand. The best brand available in its price range. The drive writes and reads flawlessly. When a disc is put unevenly or an accidently swallowed foreign object, the tray automatically closes and opens according to standard design.

Pros
  • greatest brand available at the pricing point. But, the drive is not one of those parts that need a lot of thought. Unless, of course, you require a thousand blanks to be filled in.
Cons
  • Old discs are read loudly and groaningly.

Absolutely useless, bad purchase, sorry to anyone who bought it.

Maybe the description didn't make it clear that it was built-in, or I didn't read it carefully enough; in any case, I intended to get an external drive and have no idea what to do with this one because your company doesn't have a standard protocol for exchanging products. Perhaps I'm misreading something again. This drive has just been sitting in my closet doing nothing, and given how much of a nuisance it is, I plan to get rid of it. Naturally, I don't give it any stars.

Pros
  • Absolutely nothing.
Cons
  • Absolutely nothing.

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

The drive is excellent, tenacious, writes well, reads too, does not think for a long time. It makes noise when you turn on the computer, and so it rumbles straight, the tray could also work more pleasantly when opened, when reading at high speed it buzzes decently like that. In general, the device is trouble-free, reliable and not killed, from a series of cheap and cheerful, who writes your version a lot.

Pros
  • works not thoughtful price 900. for the boxed version
Cons
  • noisy at high speed, but I think it's for everyone so there's no getting away from it

I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

I bought the second one 2 months after the first one. It turned out that the tray at the first one does not go to the end by 8-10 mm. Didn't hurt to use. With the tray open, I lubricated the thick gear on the left with silicone grease. It didn't help right away. Then he recorded a batch of 100 discs. contract. Everything became OK. Perhaps due to the heat, the lubricant has dispersed where it should be. It reacts badly to closing the tray with your hand - I use the button.

Pros
  • Quiet. Without marriage writes cheap 8.5 GB. disks. Of 20 pcs. marriage 0%. But the more expensive ASUS 24F 1ST spoiled 4 pcs. out of 4. I use 2 pcs. such. TDK wheels on 16x write perfectly. From 200 pcs. marriage 0%.
Cons
  • For 16x discs, select only 8x or 16x speed.

Excellent value for money CD/DVD drive

I trust the ASUS brand when it comes to computer internals (like motherboards, graphics cards, etc.) so I decided to use their peripherals. It would be nice to do so. The DVD-ROM drive was packaged in a well-wrapped box, the drive was wrapped and then placed in a foam sleeve to keep it safe during shipping and handling. The kit also includes a CD with several programs, none of which are required to install and use the drive (this is on a Windows 7 computer). The package includes 4 mounting…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • No
