Good replacement drive
- Pros: Cheap, clean looking drive. Fits well with older Dell Optiplex P3 system tower.
- Cons: Jerky drive opening mechanics.
- Other Thoughts: Good, cheap replacement for a client's older machine.
Not bad
- Pros: It works and isn't bad for a cheap drive. Not too loud.
- Cons: It sounds kind of chunky when you eject.
- Other Thoughts: Just needed an additional drive for media copying purposes and installation purposes. I would get one again.

Cheap
- Pros: It was used in a firewall computer so just needed a reader, and it reads fine.
- Cons: none
Plays CDs, what else can I say?
- Pros: Inexpensive, easy to install, simple to use. Works all right.
- Cons: Seems to have some trouble reading from copy-protected discs. Some of my games must be played from my other cd/dvd drive.
- Other Thoughts: If all you want is a cheap cd-rom drive, this is great choice. If you want something more capable and/or reliable, you should look somewhere else.
- Pros: It's a cd drive alright. It isn't to loud. It doesn't mess up cd's when you tilt it it's fast and it works great so far. Would recommend you get it as soon as it's back in stock
- Cons: none at all
