    Good product

    I'm just worried about the external power supply staying plugged in all the time.
    The USB cable is too short too

    Mastoc

    Bulky product (admittedly, it is meant to hold an external DVD player) and not very nice design.
    Minimalist connectivity too.

    It does the job, but

    I needed to scan over a thousand CDs and more than a 5"1/4 slot in my tower.
    The PLUSses :
    * It's plug'n play
    * It absorbs vibrations well
    * The anti-slip pads are very efficient. I was afraid with the vibrations of a drive that it would move a bit
    I was afraid that the vibrations of a player would cause it to move a bit * It's big but you can stack dozens of CDs on it without it moving
    * There is an ON/OFF button.
    The MINUSES :
    * It looks a bit cheap as a construction
    * The spring that holds the door in front of the cart is a bit too stiff, and the drawer has a bit of trouble to come out, so I removed the spring.
    * The blue LEDs on the case are not deactivatable unless you disconnect them from the internal electronic board.
