Last two times I've ordered from Target and the item was actually out of stock, they offered to ship it for free. YMMV.

Useful to have these days since many laptops and desktops even don't ship with a DVD drive... I'm waiting for a bluray drive deal personally

If one of those copies is offsite from your primary location you should be OK

Brings me back to 2005

This review takes me back to 2005

"I bought this with my new desktop. It has been a month, and I STILL don't know how to use it. I tried calling LG service. and was on hold for 30 minutes (Burning up my phone minutes, I must note! Who's paying for THAT!??!!?) I tried the website, but it said there was "No support info available for SP80NB80 products". There is a disc with it, but no instructions about how to operate anything after you put the disc in. It said it was taking me to the "CLOUD". wherever that is, and I never got another response out of the thing after that point. It just sat there and did nothing."

Frustrating that movie studios and tech work together to prevent 10 year old technology from working. No UHD support on any PC Blu-ray drives.

Is there a way to get these to work with a chromebook? I have a friend who called me last night looking for one of these for his wife to use with her Chromebook, as that's the only pc they have.

It uses USB connection. As long as the chromebook has a USB port, it will work. The USB-C port will need a adapter.

Quote from starcaptor :
In all seriousness, it's better to at least get the widest-supporting drive, and get something which can at least PLAY 4k BDs.

DVD is the maligned middle-child of optical formats in 2022. No large audio library or nostalgic value like CDs, and no current-standard support like BD.
Playback of 4k BDs on recent CPUs has been killed:

I suppose you could still rip the discs but what a PITA
