### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great super slim slot load DVD
*by M***F on November 8, 2015*

I had to replace a slot load DVD in my Antec ISK300 mini ITX HTPC case. This drive plays any DVD well, even ones scratched by my kids. All the mounting holes are correct, because this is for laptops! Note that this drive is extremely thin, 9.5mm!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ right now im a happy man because finally my first node 804 is full ...
*by A***. on March 9, 2015*

I previously purchased the evga hadron drive for my two node 804, turns out that both the evga drive cant read and kept ejecting the disc out for no reason, even if it able to attempt to read the disc, it made loud noise so loud that i thought my casing gonna explode.then i chance upon this LG slim optical drive, so far only one been delivered to me, without its LG original box, it came with the typical amazon bubble wrapped packaging only.it also doesnt comes with the sata+power cable but luckily i can reuse the one from evga hadron drive.finally it worked! initially i insert my disc in with the image facing towards me, once it goes in, it took awhile before it spit out again, at that point of time i thought to myself that am i that lucky?then after many attempt of inserting in and seeing it ejecting out, i decided to invert the disc and insert again, this time round the bottom of the disc is facing me, and viola! it starts to read and auto play the content of the disc!right now im a happy man because finally my first node 804 is full operational and good to go!side note was that i realized that the reading speed a tad bit slow, but to me i guess its still alot better than cant read it at all right? lol.cheers!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What more could you ask for?:)
*by B***E on July 19, 2015*

Quiet, sturdy, decently priced, and works fine. What more could you ask for? I've used this in several PC builds and it has not let me down at all. For being the cheapest slim DVD drive out there, it does its job very well
