Modern notebooks typically lack a CD-ROM drive, and many come with only a few USB ports. To achieve even thinner profiles and faster data transfer speeds, some models now exclusively feature Type C ports. However, despite these advancements, many of us still cherish our collections of 90s CDs and DVDs. Whether it’s to relive the nostalgia of old music albums, enjoy a DVD movie collection, install software/game from disk, or simply have a reliable solution for data transfer and system backups, a versatile external CD/DVD drive becomes indispensable.
