Most Critical Review

Just a feedback

Rosewill Slim 8X DVD Writer External Optical Drive for PCs - USB 2.0 - Model ROD-EX003-R - Gloss Red

Pros: I bought this unit from newegg. Used it on my HP DV8t QE with no problem, either booting or reand and write cd or dvd. I would have rated this as 5 stars.

Cons: But I just bought a Lenovo X120E and this rosewill with the teac drive absolutely refused to boot either with a Win 7 DVD or a ubuntu 10.4 CD. I have spent the last 3 days trying to diagnose and could not fix this problem. Tried different usb ports, usb cable, used 2 usb to increase power, used a 5v ac adapter to increase power. Tried all different bios settings, UEFI, legacy drive option etc... This absolutely refuses to boot. It can write and read dvd/cd fine. I hesitate to post this review, except that I usually read the reviews before purchase, so I hope that I give fair warning to those who like me own the Lenovo X120e and this rosewill.

great software, connectivity and range

Pros: Absolutely no problem with memory and ryzen 7 compatibility. Wifi is a nice touch but I use wired network. ASRock just released new firmware 4.8.

Cons: not enough info in manual for all the oc and voltage settings for cpu and memory. Used XML profile in G.Skill memory.

Overall Review: Would definitely recommend to others.

Overall Review: Asus really needs to increase it's QC for it's refurbished units. Really disappointed
