Need an external optical drive...

[abijnk]

Hey all! So, I was wanting to see if anyone could recommend an external optical drive that can read the small dvds used in some video cameras (I assume one exists 🙂 )

Anyone know of anything that I could use with my macbook?

Thanks!

Wouldn't any normal external optical drive work? Just as long as it has a tray with a spindle in the middle to hold the disk in place?

I don't know, which is why I asked 🙂

Is there one particular brand out there that is more reliable than another, or one that I should steer clear from?

Thanks
