Arrived soon after it was ordered. The package was supposed to include a chart indicating how to use the product, but it was absent. Found a user guide online and printed it out, although only one and a half pages were relevant to usage, the rest dealt with legal stuff (compliance with legislation, guarantees, etc.) to enable the company to cover its backside.Lenovo seems to be a very large and rather odd company that makes it difficult to engage with its customers. Having purchased a Lenovo laptop without a DVD player/burner I could find no advice about which of its products I should buy to remedy this deficiency and whether there might be a compatibility problem.

Delivery was better than expected Product arrived at least 10 days ahead of schedule. Thanks. The product serves my purpose in that I am able once again to copy CDs into iTunes and burn data discs. However the user guide on the accompanying disc did not mention compatibility with Microsoft 10 which leads me to believe this is a discontinued line. The manufacturers date on the box is 2014. Old stock? Despite this the unit works perfectly. A word of warning however it took several attempts to run the .exe file to instal the software on my Lenovo Desktop AIO PC. There was no where to register the warranty for this product on the Lenovo website.

Recieved this today, works fine for my T450 (another T450 owner review said they had problems - keen to know what the problems are as Lenovo recommend this drive for the T450). Another reviewer said the cord was stupidly short, which is not my view as its cord is ample once pulled out to plug into a laptop. A spare cable length adapter is also supplied, but I can't see the use of that as the existing length is fine. It also comes bundled with software to rip CDs and DVDs. Haven't tried out the software yet. Hope this review helps.

Personally and professionally I have used Lenovo laptops for a long time, they are reliable, well built and stand up to abuse in the field. This dvd reader/burner is exactly as I would come to expect of them, same hardiness ad if you keep it in a proper case I'm sure it will provide years of service, if I have one gripe then the usb lead is a little short

Feels solidly built and worked perfectly with Windows 10. No need for the documentation, I just plugged it in to a portable docking station and it installed. The cable is only 16cm long, which minimises desktop clutter and I can't see that I'll ever want to use it further away. It's styled identically to the Thinkpad.

I got this a few days ago works fine with Win 7, Win 10 and Linux Ubuntu 16.04. I haven't tried it with my Mac Pro yet.The cable that you see in the picture snugs in and it's very short. However they do send you an extension, so don't worry - some peeps on here failed to mention the extension.

Absolutely perfect for my needs and uses. Some slight confusion with keyboard as no @ sign but thanks to Google found the answers. Only slight moan is maybe battery life not that great. But for me quite happy.

Jut what I wanted. Very compact. Just connect into the usb port and it installed itself. Quality seems good, certainly good enough for my usage.DVD's played perfectly. Very pleased.

Does exactly what it is designed to do. Fairly compact (well as compact as you can be for a CD/DVD drive!) and works a treat with the ThinkPad

Great build quality as you'd expect from this manufacturer. Not a bad price either.Happy that it has a cable built in and slots away nicely.

Very good drive, bought to use with Lenovo 11.6" laptop (which I bought to use with my dslr) and it's thin and light enough to carry in case.

Brilliant package, plug and play, gives me the option to watch old dvd's, burn cds for car etc.Usual Thinkpad quality of hardware good too

Works well with Lenovo T450. I had no need to install any software. Installed Windows 7 pro and Office 2010 from disc with no problems.

Works fast & fine, very lightweight - that is probably reason for only concern which is the whole thing feels a bit flimsy.
