I like this external drive because it’s small and easy to put away when not in use. It works great with my MacBook Pro M1. The sound quality is alright. The design is workable. Plastic parts on the cd drive and I don’t know how long it will last but it’s doable for now. Good for the money. It’s compatible to my devices. (MacBook Pro, iPad)
