Review: This allows you to use your old DVD/Bluray reader/writer on a PC or laptop with no slot for one - It does exactly what it says and managed to see my old 5 1/4 inch Blueray drive as a DVD and Blueray drive. As a bonus it also managed to access a 3 1/2 inch SATA 3 hard disk as a hard disk. It also runs both at full USB 3 speed (if your PC has a USB3 port) Is just a dongle so no enclosure but much cheaper because of that I did ask US technical suport about the enclosed power supply and they responded fast with an answer to my questions on plug dimensions for an alternate UK power supply I was lucky that I already had a mains adapter plug to go from the enclosed US 2 pin power supply to a UK plug. They only sell the US version of the product and it comes from desertcart US. Delivery was reasonable timewise.
Review: Highly Recommended - Having previously tried various Chinese devices through desertcart that were unable to have my Windows 11 Pro (x64) operating system recognise my old Pioneer BDR-209EBK internal optical drive and therefore had to be returned, I finally found this device after a good deal of forum searching and it works perfectly. I have not tried it with formerly internal HDDs yet but I am wholly confident that it will work. I would therefore highly recommend this device to all who have old but working optical drives & hard disk drives from old computer builds but no bay or provision in their current computer rigs for the installation of an optical drive or not enough space for all the old HDDs they might have. I am absolutely delighted.
