The LG DVD Writer GP57EB40 is a very thin, external DVD player and burner. This DVD Writer is only 14mm thick, making it very compact and easy to bring along. Aside from CDs and DVDs, this DVD burner is also suitable for M-DISC. Connecting couldn't be easier. All you need is a USB port; separate power supplies are a thing of the past. You can even connect the LG DVD Writer GP57EB40 to TVs, digital photo frames, and PCs. The DVD burner can run on both Windows and Apple operating systems.

Today I received the LG DVD -writer GP57EW40. When I took the device out of the packaging, I noticed the following; it is very small (not much bigger than a CD case), and the weight was not too bad for me. With its 200 grams, you can take it anywhere in your laptop bag. I use it in combination with my MacBook Air, ideal it is literally plug and play, so very easy to use. Another very nice touch is the fact that the USB cable is a power cable at the same time. So no messing with 1 cable to your laptop and 1 to the socket. For me, the price-quality ratio is perfectly fine, especially if I compare the price with the Apple Superdrive, whose price is considerably higher.
However, there is 1 very small downside; The housing is made of plastic and so it can be relatively vulnerable in a laptop bag.
My conclusion; Are you looking for a DVD player with which you can also burn CDs and DVDs? Say I look no further.

Does what I expect it to do. Eat and play CD/DVDs.

This white LG player is a fast and functional beauty. It stands perfectly next to the laptop and forms a two unit. There will certainly be a downside, but I haven't discovered it yet!
