so-so lala
Bought 4 of them to archive CDs a bit faster. Apparently different hardware is randomly installed in the case without this being labelled in any way. But they work perfectly, so 4 stars anyway. Is probably something leftover stock utilisation :)

Import of the CD collection as MP3 planned, after approx. 20 CDs the HW no longer works.
No problem with Digitec's handling of the case, credit note, ordered the same device again, and AGAIN after approx. 20 CDs the read head no longer positions and remains in an endless state.
-> BILLIG, not worth the price.Pro

Contra
- After a short time, they no longer know what the task is
Runs great without major problems
It can happen that it reduces the image quality while reading in order to "load" the following image material more quickly. However, this only lasts for 2-3 seconds and then switches back to the previous image quality without interruption.
DVD playback does not work reliably (Windows)
Not suitable for playing DVDs on Windows 11 (HP notebook, noname desktop). Player hangs sporadically (e.g. with VLC Media Player).
Pro
- USB-C connection
Contra
- DVD playback dropout
