This is a slim, portable optical drive. It is designed specifically with small laptops in mind - those so small that they don't have room for a built-in drive. It provides the ability to read and write CDs and DVDs when needed, but can be stowed away when not in use to save battery power.
In practice this could also be used with a larger laptop if an additional drive is needed, or even with a desktop; any computer with powered USB ports should be able to use it.
