A word of warning, this is meant for newer PCs, this is only connects with SATA cables so if you don't have a SATA port on your Motherboard, don't buy it unless you are building a new PC that has a motherboard with SATA ports. I got it for around 18 dollars and the product works very well. I was able to install games and play my PS2 games with an emulator. The disc load times were reasonable, or just way better than the PS2 disc load times. Of course the PS2 is now around 14 years old and this product is only a few to a couple years old. I haven't tested if it can burn CDs and DVDs but it definitely says that it burns DVDs and CDs and I trust that because that's kind of mandatory for any CD drives nowadays.

Seems that most of these products only last about a year, then start screwing up. At least with me anyway. I feel like i am having to buy a new one ever year and a half. Yes i keep it clean with a cd clean disc. As well as all my DVD's that i use in it. The product does get a ton of use. I will say they do perform great at first. Just like anything else. The longer the use, it starts to fail..LOL!! It is priced great and does perform as expected. So i do recommend it =) Thanks for the product

Worked great for 4 1/2 months, now it's starting to not burn DVDs correctly and has ruined several blank disks. Should last longer than this. Not happy
