Question 1

Is it "self-powered" via the USB cable or does it require external power via another source such as a USB hub or external power cord?

Accepted Answer

Yes it is self-powered and works great.  No power cord needed.

Question 2

do i need to download software for this drive?

Accepted Answer

No, you do not. I have used this with Windows 7, 8, and 10 and CentOS 6 and 7 and Ubuntu 14.04, 16.04, and 17.10 and never had to install a driver for any of those operating systems. I've also used it with dozens of PCs and laptops to boot from CDs/DVDs and have never found a BIOS that didn't recognize it as a bootable device.

Question 3

I have an ASUS laptop - 2.16 Ghz Intel processor, 4 Ghz of RAM, running WIN 10 OS - is this drive compatible?

If your laptop has an available USB 2.0 port it should be compatible. Win 10 should install the CD/DVD drive without the need for a driver.

Does this drive work with Mac OS 10.10.xx and 10.11.xx?
