Need External Cd/DVD Drive

(1/2) > >>

James Edward:
Please recommend an external drive for my friend's computer. The internal drive no longer works... He is not a computer geek, so a simple plug 'n play would be best. He would be using it to rip cd's to his hard drive, and burn music cd's for playback on a cd player. Thanks for any recommendations.

James Edward:
PS- The recommendation doesn't have to be all that specific- my feeling is that most would fit the bill, but I don't want to recommend an outright dog or inappropriate drive. He has Windows 10 pc. Thanks.

HAL:
Try www.newegg.com

Here is one example of a USB DVD drive for PC's:

Jack:
Agree with HAL the ASUS drives are always a safe bet.  It's even cheaper though on Amazon so easier to get replacement if a problem occurs.

ASUS has been my go to company for computer parts all the way back to 90s when I was building PCs from scratch and cannot say that I ever had a bad product from them.
