Review Text: Review LG Slim portable DVD writer AP70NS50. 12/30/2020 I have a MacBook Pro 13 inch with a thunderbolt port which requires an adapter to connect to the USB ports of any DVD players. It appears that not every DVD player can connect via this method, it seems there is some connection issue with some DVDs. I originally had ordered an LG DVD ultra slim portable writer SP80NB80 Which was not able to be identified by my MacBook Pro. After discussion with both LG and Apple, it sounds like it's a hit and miss process to see what might work with this machine and the new port systems. I gave LG another try and this time ordered the super multi blade slim portable DVD writer AP70NS50. Success! Right out of the box, my laptop identified the disk Drive and I was able to trial three different DVD discs which all worked. I would highly recommend this to anyone with an Apple product that has thunderbolt Ports requiring an adapter to connect to the USB cable. I'm only 30 minutes into using this product, so I can't recommend it based on longevity with continued use, but it is working on the front end and I am able to play DVDs, so for now I am very happy!
