Review: Useless for Linux - Despite it says on the box that it works with Linux OS, it does not! There is an email in the manual and the answer I got when I asked for an installing driver for the latest LTS release of Linux was: "Hi, Sorry for not being able to reply you earlier. Having sent your issue to our technical team, we were told this external drive doesn't support Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS. It work fine with Mac and windows system. Sorry for the inconvenience and sincerely thank you for your understanding and patience. Best regards" This is why I gave this item the minimum score for portability. As for easy to use, I think the cable could be a bit longer, because when I'm home I use a platform to elevate my notebook, so the screen is horizontally aligned to my eyesight. I am going to test the drive with Windows, but that is going to be a pain in the neck to keep switching between OS just because of it.
Review: Ce lecteur répond bien à mes attentes. - Je l'ai branché sur mon ''laptop'' car celui-ci n'a pas de lecteur CD/DVD intégré. Globalement, je suis satisfait du résultat. Bon rapport qualité-prix.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Great!!
*by D***R on 9 December 2019*

I recently got a new Macbook Air with a USB-C port instead of plain USB ports. I also got an adapter to allow me to still use my USB drives and devices. When I tried to burn a CD from iTunes, my computer couldn't write to my burner through the adaptor. Amicool to the rescue! I purchased an Amicool External DVD drive with USB 3.0 and USB-C cables built into the drive. It's great. Since the cable is attached to the drive, I don't have to worry about misplacing the cable. The drive worked great. It was fast and easy to use. Thanks, Amicool! One small thing - the cable attaches under the drive and you have to bend it back to plug it into your computer. If you don't get it just right the drive is sitting on the cable and so the drive doesn't sit solidly on the table. If you push the cable down hard, it will, but it's easy to not do that. I have an external hard drive with the cable built-in, but instead of coming out of the bottom, it comes out of the side. Maybe for the next upgrade. . . But it's an excellent DVD drive and I'm very happy with my order.
