Worked perfectly until my cable broke
I would give this a great rating except I can't find a replacement cable to save my life. I bought this because my laptop doesn't have a disc drive and it worked perfectly with my Dell computer to play DVDs, CDs, and burn MP3s. I accidentally dropped it still plugged in which naturally bent the cable plug and it won't power on unless the cable is angled a certain way. Maybe it's just me, but I can't find a replacement cable anywhere. I don't want to buy a whole new DVD player. I would give it 5 stars if not for that. This thing does exactly what I want and it is pretty quiet. If someone could tell me where to get a new cable, I'll re-write my review. Otherwise, If you can't buy replacement parts, don't bother. Until I figure something else out, I'll have to buy a whole new dvd player.

Temperamental and no replacement cable available.
Not very good. Eventually played a disc on laptop - just static data. Wanted to play DVD on TV as stated on box but doesn't work. Mislaid cable and lg doesn't have one for irs own product.Also note the same unhelpful response to all reviews. So much for buying a branded product.

Works well for Audio CDs
As title states, this portable drive works well for burning/playing audio CDs. I have no yet tried to burn DVDs. As portable drives go, it is delicate and should be handled as such, but it works well. It is attractive, however, I deducted one star because I think a matt finish would have been more appropriate for something that is handled a lot. Finger prints show all over the place, and I imagine so will scratches that might happen. Mechanically, so far, I rate this A+. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

I bought this DVD writer and it's the best!!!!
This DVD writer is great!!!!! The only thing that I have a problem is, how to slow the writer so I can put movies on one DVD!! I use this item at the local library, but can not get any kind of help!!!! Because the staff think that I'm downloading movies that have copyright's!!! But the two websites that I use has movies that have no copyright or they where not renewed! Please get this great writer! And see how it works for you!!!!!

The size of a CD case
This unit fulfills my expectations completely. Slim, having dimensions of a CD case, requires quite a small footprint. The installation could not have been simpler. Remove it from the shipping carton, plug in the USB cable, insert the installation disk and within minutes I was playing a DVD. The software provides viewing/writing capability and also contains file backup to preserve computer file. I am thrilled with this LG DVD/CD player/writer which I use with Windows 10 on my desktop computer. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

CD/DVD GP65NB60 Drive
I bought this for my new computer that had no drive because I thought it wasn't needed, but decided to install some old CD/DVD information, hence, bought it. The instructions were a little vague initially, but after a couple of attempts, I got Win10 to recognize the drive and sound activiated. I am pleased with it now. No other issues after 30 days of use. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

My Review for GP65NB60
I have been somewhat suspicious of the lightweight slim portable DVD burner/player drives that I borrowed to satisfy a short term need, but after reading the reviews of the LG 65NB60 I decided to bite the bullet and buy one for myself.
This thing is solid, rugged, quiet and works like a charm. It seems better built than the other units I borrowed, and the speed and performance is much better than I expected. I am MCSE and A+ certified and have been in the business since b4 the first CD read/write drives came installed from the factory. I am very impressed with all aspects of this little drive and will have no problem recommending it. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Works just as expected.
I bought this a couple months ago and it has been working flawlessly, 'cept for a small tiny detail. Yesterday it sent me a message I didn't take too much notice about something concerning to the Power2go software and when I tried to burn a new DVD it changed the burning option from the name of the Optical Drive to Image Recorder DVD 5 or 9 and the PC froze. I had to reset it and change the burning method. I have no complains up to this day except for that one and I have to say it's a really great OD, reliable and fast.

Insert a blank cd to begin
This worked fine until it did not. Now when I try to burn a cd, it will usually say insert a blank cd. Sometimes the cd will be recognized after opening and closing many times. It usually just spins for a couple minutes and then stops. If the cd ever gets recognized it will spin much faster. I will probably buy another device.

Very Disappointed.
I bought this a little under 2 months ago, and it worked great for about 2 weeks. I bought it for my acer chromebook so that I could view jpeg files and do my homework for school. I was able to use it for about 2 weeks and then it stopped working. The disk just spins and will no longer read. I starting thinking there was a problem with my chromebook, which I bought at the same time, so I had a friend use it on her Macbook (She has used mine previously, and it worked fine). The drive didn't work on hers either. I am just so annoyed because I made sure that I bought a chromebook and an external drive that were compatible for school, and now I'm back to using the school's outdated computers that are usually broken. The price was reasonable, but not worth 2 weeks of use. I do not recommend.

Can't get it to play DVD
I bought this product with the idea that I could play a DVD. Inserted a disc after installing correctly, and only the audio would play. Tried another DVD and still could not get it it to play. It's not as simple as plugging in and "deciding what to do with the disc." Have some feelers out to some friends to figure out why I cannot get it to work.

Not bad . . . EXCEPT
So far I've had a couple of issues--one particularly important for me: 1) the write speed seems slower than indicated by X__; 2) if burning a file that requires more than one blank disc to complete . . . it simply re-burns the first part over and over again, asking for an additional disc to be inserted ad infinitum!

Great value for money
I bought this a week ago and had already burnt some 10 DVDs with it. It is indeed noise-less and very light-weight and that's where my problem is too.. The product is very prone to damage as the plastic feels flimsy and easily bendable. That is the only con. I love that it requires only one USB port and not two like some other brands. Works well on my LG 3D TV too. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

Value for money
I've been using it from past 2 years and no issues till date. Add-on feature apart from DVD writer is that, it can be used to play DVD/CD on USB port of any tv. You just need press n hold power button for 3 seconds. Doing so will turn DVD into fat32 format and plays the contents on any TV having usb port. I played DVDs in same way on my android phone as well using otg adaptor.
This feature is not available on any other brands of dvd writers.
Only con is that it's like delicate.
Overall, it's value for money.

All the advertised software is not included.
I was excited to buy this and take it home to try and burn DVDs for the first time. On the package LG advertises that all the necessary software is included. Unfortunately, this isn’t the case. You can’t burn DVDs unless you buy a software upgrade for $39.99. This may be a good value if you only are looking to burn music or create a file back up. If you are purchasing the drive for burning DVDs, you need to expect that it will cost you another $40 to get the capabilities that you need.

I bought the LG Portable DVD Writer to play DVDs on my laptops. They have no DVD drive port. It arrived with a disk; presumably an installation driver. I have no drive. After purchasing my LG I discovered I can purchase an app license for an annual fee. The best product development and marketing practice would be for a user to make one purchase that allows a user to enjoy the privilege's of owner with ease.

LG GP63EX70 Ultra Slim Portable DVD
When I received the DVD Writer, at a discounted price for an honest review, the LG DVD writer looks like any other player/recorder. But once it has been used, you notice that it is different in many ways.
Initially, when you connect it, it is hard to tell that it is powered on since it is so quiet. When inserting a disc, the election is almost a quiet as the reading portion of it.
One thing that this unit has that others do not is the ability to record M-Disc media. This format is supposed to allow for true permanent storage, The only drawback I have come across is the availability of the M-Disc media. The availability of it is limited, and really hard to locate. I have found some but it took several weeks for them to be shipped from Japan.
This is the only thing that prevents it from getting a 5-star review

Great little device!
I have a new LG laptop, which is great, but no DVD player. Unthinkingly, I bought tax software on CD version and stupidly opened, then realized I had no player. Once opened, no returns. I ordered two plug and play brand players featured on Amazon, and neither worked. I then found the LG player at about the same price. My only complaint is that LG, like most companies nowadays, print instructions on tiny pieces of paper in a small font. For those of us with bad eyesight and who do not respond well to minimal graphics, this is not good. I had to call LG to find out how to open the drive door (you push on it) so I could insert the CD to load. The small paper with minimal instruction must be to cut cost, but that is so thoughtless.

I purchased this a month or so ago and am very happy with it. My old laptop has Windows 7 on it, by choice, and it works fine. I did have to get the Geek Squad to check something before I could get it to work. I had an error message at first. We found one of the ports that did work well with it. It is plug and play and I'm glad for that. I've only used it for playing DVD's so far, but it has other capabilities. The price is great.

Slim and sleek and at it's peak!
I'm very happy with this LG always ready to roll CD/DVD burner. It has never disappointed me, and has consistently done its job with great results.

Doesn't work, zero support.
Directions: none.
Did it work? not on a MacBook Pro despite trying all 4 ports and 3 adapters known to function.
Support online? nonexistent.
conclusion: if it were wedge shaped, it might make a door stop. Otherwise useless.

Good external DVD writer player for Laptop
Good external little writer and player for laptops with no DVD. The software won't allow me to play certain commercial DVDs. Unit feels flimsy.

Garbage
I bought this brand new in 2021 but for some reason didn't hook it up right away. Finally plugged into my 2019 iMac and nothing...doesn't even show up on the computer. Contacted LG but because it is out of warranty they will do nothing. Seems it is a piece of junk since I've read other review with folks having the same issues. Sad that LG won't do anything given I purchased a whole kitchen suite of LG appliances in the summer of 2021.

LG Portable DVD Read Write Drive
I purchased this drive two weeks ago. It arrived in a secure package. The instructions were included and were easy to understand and implement. The drive has worked perfectly to my satisfaction

Works
This drive is working much better than my previous drive, but it has only been in use several weeks. It is a complex mechanical item. The real "telling" is in long term.
LG should ask me in a year about how it has lasted.

Software to use it costs another $50!
The box says it contains "Power2Go" DVD burner software. It does not.
LG support says it has a 30 day trial version which is not mention on the box .In any case it doesn't even have the free trial. It does have DVD player software (which is great if you want to see more ads).

slim and fast
for an external Disk Drive it is slim fast and super easy to use, can't beat the price either. It's not the best in the market but it is one of the best in my opinion due to its versatility.

Great tool!
In the world of ever shrinking laptops, they took my DVD drive/burner away!!!! It makes it important to have a nice USB one to use when you need it. This little LG definitely fits the bill. My IT organization uses them, and we just buy more.

Good device
Needed because most laptops no longer have a DVD drive.
Good quality device for a fair price.
