Great little drive but setup could be better
on June 18, 2016
Posted by: NM13SI
I purchased this drive because my new laptop (and most laptops these days) does not have an optical drive. I researched and saw this was comopatible with Windows10 and could read CDs, DVDs and BluRay. Getting it set up to play back DVDs and BluRay was a bit of a challenge and the error kept referring to Microsoft Visual C++ and advised to contact Microsoft. I called Microsoft and they pointed the finger at LG and were actually quite useless. I contacted LG and they referred me back to Microsoft...sigh. After various google and forum searches, I figured out the problem on my own and downloaded was needed/missing. Now, I was able to install Office and play back all sorts of things. It works wonderfully and I may be getting another one for my daughter who is going away to college. It is a bit pricey in my opinion but it seems there are not many options especially for Windows10 laptops without an optical drive. Many optical drives are not comopatible or upgradeable to work with Windows10. Overall, I like this drive but wish setup had been easier.

Great laptop

I had a good experience with Lenovo at work so went with this laptop after reading reviews and bad experiences with HP and especially Toshiba. Have had the laptop for over two months and it works very well. Setup was quick and easy. As this and many other laptops have no optical drive, I later purchased an external one that could read CDs, DVDs and Blu Ray. I did have a problem getting that set up but it seemed to be a Microsoft issue. After going back and forth between Microsoft, LG (the drive manufacturer) and Lenovo, I eventually figured out the problem on my own. I love the touchscreen, backlit keyboard and zoom function on this laptop. Responsiveness is very quick and the sound and visual quality is beyond my expectations. As my daughters are beginning college in the fall, I purchased two more of these laptops less than two weeks ago. Again, no problems whatsoever and they love all the features, especially the two-in-one so they can use it as a tablet. I am even getting a price adjustment as this is on sale now. Wifi connectivity is great throughout our home and backyard. Overall, I am very happy..

work with windows 10?

Hi, yes this is compatible with Windows10. It seems there are not many drives out there that are.
