Title: External DVD player?
Post by: Edmund on December 08, 2010, 12:03:08 am
So I've got a whole heap of DVDs but my laptops DVD drive is screwed - when I stick a DVD in, it spins really fast and I have to force eject it... Does anyone know where I can get an external DVD drive where I can plug in via USB (not sure if this exists)?

+ karma for any suggestions :)

At MSY, $60. Anywhere else, >$100.

Check out their website catalogue before going in, you need to know what you want at MSY, no place to browse.

also keep alternatives in mind, they tend to be sold of of things at MSY, and try to go at a less popular times so you aren't waiting half a hour in line
