In addition, please connect the item with USB port behind of computer host if you use a desktop. 2.Ensure CDs is placed well and not scratched. The raised fixing post in the middle of the CD drive tray has three spring buckles. You need to gently press the CD disc into the spring buckles to secure the disc. 3.Make sure your computer's CD/DVD driver is intact before using an external optical drive. The computer operating system comes with a CD/DVD driver. If the program is damaged or removed, the CD/DVD driver needs to be updated or reinstalled. 4.Once you plug this external dvd player for laptop into your computer, it will bring up your downloaded Media Player, select it, and from that point forward whatever disc you put in will automatically open through it. You download a Media Player program onto your computer if don't already have one before you hook it up. 5.Remember to set the DVD Region to United States on the player – Windows :This PC– dvd drive- Properties – Hardware Tab – Properties button – Choose Region (US is 1) -Apply. Mac：Menu-System Preference-Language & Region - Region - Select Country - Apply Remember you can only reset the country 5 times. 6.Mac OS computers do not display the device icon before placing a disc into disc tray & drive reads successfully the disc. For Mac OS, use the mac command to eject disc. If eject button/computer command not working, stick emergency hole to force eject a disc. 7.Computers often do not natively support DVD movie playing, so a third-party media player (such as VLC) must be downloaded and installed to watch DVDs using this CD/DVD player. You can download and install a playing/burning software you like. You can also refer to the following software No fee playing software: Any Media Player, Any DVD No fee burning software for Windows OS: InfraRecorder, Ones, Express Disc Burner No fee burning software for mac OS: Burn for mac No fee burning software for Linux OS/Unix OS: K3b (KDE Burn Baby Burn) 8.Because the video formats of most computers and mobile phones are not compatible with DVD, you need third-party software to convert the file format to a format that can be displayed on the disc, otherwise, even if you burn the file to a disc, it will not work. Review: Works well - good value - Seems to work fine with my iMac, however it needed to be connected directly to the iMac usb port - there’s not enough power if trying to connect via a usb hub. Review: Excellent - Brilliant realised I can’t rip cds any more after the demised of my pc’s motherboard and its replacement with a lap top and now I can, at the speed of greased lightning and also play them if my music streamer packs in. The lead is short but didn’t bother me. ## Features - 【Great Compatibility】External CD DVD Drive for Laptop is compatible with Windows 11/10/8.1/7/XP/2003/Vista/ Linux, all version Mac OS system Laptop, Macbook, PC, Desktop Computer.

The lead is short but didn’t bother me. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good *by S***M on 15 July 2026* It does exactly what I want it to do, which is reading CDs so that I can rip them onto my mp3 player. Can get loud but I find it easy to drown out so it doesn’t bother me at all. Find the fact that the wire comes tucked in to the player very useful for storage. Haven’t had a problem with anything yet but I haven’t tried to read any dvds yet. For £20, I’d say it’s good value for money. ## Frequently Bought Together - External DVD Drive,USB 3.0 CD/DVD +/-RW Drive Portable CD DVD Player Burner Reader Writer, Slim Optical CD ROM Drive for Laptop Desktop PC Linux Apple Mac OS Macbook Pro Windows 11/10 - Philips DVD-R DM4S6B10F/00 - blank DVDs (4.7 GB, DVD-R, 120 min, 16x) - Philips CR7D5 NB10/00 CD-R Blank Discs 80 Min 52x 700MB 10er Spindel --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fr/products/615325212-external-cd-dvd-drive-for-laptop-usb-3-0-type](https://www.desertcart.fr/products/615325212-external-cd-dvd-drive-for-laptop-usb-3-0-type) --- *Product available on Desertcart France* *Store origin: FR* *Last updated: 2026-09-18*
