Yes since this laptop contains" 4 x USB 2.0 ports" and the DVD is external connection via USB this should work fine. Once connected the OS should install the proper driver automatically.

On the newer version, that is correct. You can get an external DVD player and plug it into a USB connector and it works perfectly.

Yes. It is compatible. You may need to update drivers or simply update your OS but, not likely. Just use the drivers that come with the installation disc and you should be fine.

I would go with the description. You might try Googling the part number to make certain. I only burn the -R, as the +R doesn't seem to be as universally compatible with both computer and dvd players from what I've personally deduced.

It's compatible with all models. This drive is capable of reading the medium but there is no player. Wii does not include DVD playback software. You can only play video DVDs on a modded unit.

It depends on your system. Check your disc information page, or you dvd guide.

I also have 2 but they both work, no problems. Have done hundreds of DVD's with them. Sorry, can't help you.

Yes. I can't remember if we just plugged it in and it worked or if we downloaded it online, but it works. We bought this BECAUSE our daughter's laptop didn't have a dvd drive and it works great with it.

It's running fine on my win 8.1 computer. To do any copying of cds/dvds/blurays, or to watch movies of these, you will need separate software though. None is included.

You should not be using a dvd. Turn off your computer, plug int the device and turn it back on. The computer immediately found the device. We have used this in Fedora, Chapieau, elementary and edubuntu and all worked fine. Try that and see if that will work.

That is my OS and it seems to work fine. I bought an HP ENVY that had no CD/DVD drive. I use it for backing up pictures to DVDs as files or making CDs with pictures to give out to friends.

My USB drive worked fine. NTFS doesn't work. Fat32 does. The 138931 region code fix worked for me. But I haven't tested with a non-region 1 DVD yet.

Now Dvd-rom is used less. You can use USB flash stick or flash card. This laptop seems more light without a DVD-rom.

Yes it is. I am using the 1 TB version currently on Windows 7, Ubuntu and XP. No issues ever with this one or any of my other Segate disks so far that I've been using.
