EASY AS!!!
This is a great little device - just press the button, insert the disk and presto - it goes - even for the tech dummies! Great for the desktop, laptop and TV. Very Happy.

Painless CD data retrieval
Purchased the HP DVDRW 2 weeks ago and the device has been working a treat. I love the simple plug in and play nature of it and have found it compatible with my Windows (home) 11 setup. My main use of the device is for retrieving data from CD's. Also to note was the very speedy delivery of device to North Queensland - thankyou.

Laptops should have these built in
Nowadays laptops don't have these built in for those of us that still use disks, but this is a great size for a laptop bag or sitting on a desktop, slim, lightweight and plug and play. Love it! A case for it to sit in would be good to protect it from knocks and dust when not in use.

Works really well.
I previously purchased another brand with built in hub. It was useless and was returned the same day. I then went back to the trusty HP external drive. It is a little more expensive, but it has worked a charm. It is a shame that new pc's these days don't have them still built in. Not everything is streamed.
I have lots of music on cd and still use them and I am sure that I am not the only one.
This drive was good as plug n play and has never missed a beat.

Had enough, sending it back
It will not work with the Desktop which I brought at the same time. However I have been able to remotely open the drawer. Really exciting!! I have managed to get it working with my old laptop. No idea if it is a problem with this unit or the Desktop. I have spoken to several "techs" at HP who don't seem to know how to fix the problem. I will be sending the unit back Monday afternoon

Could have been a lot easier
So this didn't connect straight to my laptop as it was supposed to. I contacted support which was an absolute pain. I was sent in 5 different directions and told I would have to hang up and call again as I had been transferred to the wrong section. I ended up using a different app to access the drive which was fine but is a round-a-bout way of doing it. I have given 3 stars as I did get it to work, however lost stars due to the support desk being completely unhelpful.

DVD Read Write
Reliable and portable DVD; I like these features when I go on holiday it allows me to watch DVDs from my own collection and not having to rely on resort equipment which often does not work or are not provided,

If This is Progress...
I bought this external drive because HP could no longer offer a notebook PC with one onboard.
I have plugged it into my new HP notebook. It doesn't seem to know it is there.
My old HP notebook has since been repaired and the new gear has been filed in the bottom of the broom cupboard.

A very convenient external drive. Readily connected to desktop & promptly recognized in File Explorer. Could also be used with other computers.

Average Quality
Is noisy and feels flimsy, but it does work. Probably okay for occasional use.

Simple but effective
Easy to install and get underway in a heartbeat. Most laptops don't come with CD?DVD read write however hooked up to my DisplayLink is like an extension of my computer.

Easy to use external DVD drive.
My order arrived super quick, and although there weren’t really any instructions it was easy to use. I did have to find an app to allow me to use the drive, but this only took a few minutes . I was able to find a free app which seems to be working perfectly.

Happiness Personified
It's bought me inspiration to go through the CDs I've stored data and photos on and relieve those memories. Would like to have been able to get it in gold to match my HP Laptop but, never mind, it does what it's suppose to and does it well.

They keep asking me for a review and so here it is
HP keep sending me emails requesting a review, so here it is.
I bought an external PC DVD drive, it arrived, it was in a box and all the contents were as expected.
I haven’t had a chance to try it yet, however I have received multiple emails requesting this review. If only one of the emails had been an email asking if I had received the product, were the contents intact and was I happy with the product.
