    this is the second time i had a "made for dell" external dvd drive fail for my mini 9. i advise that everyone avoid this option. dell wont give support for it and the company that sells it to dell is near impossible to get a hold of for product support.

    What issues are you experiencing?

    Is this a USB powered drive?
