BPAKDU External CD Drive
Score: 75/100
PeroBuno External DVD Drive
Score: 78/100Rankings
The PeroBuno External CD/DVD Drive offers an 8-in-1 solution with optical burning, USB hub, dual card readers, and a 100 Mbps Ethernet adapter, all powered via USB. Its DVD/CD speeds are adequate but not top-tier, and the Ethernet is limited to 100 Mbps. Best suited for travelers and remote workers who value multifunctionality over peak performance.
The BPAKDU B31-Y is an ultra-slim external CD/DVD drive that doubles as a 4-port USB 3.0 hub with SD and TF card readers, powered via USB or optional adapter. Its versatile connectivity and portable form factor are strong points, though it cannot handle discs larger than 8.5 GB and the card slots cannot be used simultaneously. Perfect for travelers needing a multi-function peripheral.

Professional reviewers and editors are not represented in the available sources; promotional materials and Newegg listings highlight the drive’s fast USB 3.0 transfer, ultra‑slim form factor, and multifunctional hub, but no independent test results or critical analysis were found.
Professional reviewers rate the PeroBuno as a solid mid-tier external DVD drive, praising its 8-in-1 versatility, quiet operation, and fast enough DVD burning speeds. While the plug-and-play USB-powered design and included carrying case are highlighted as conveniences, critics note that its performance does not match premium competitors and that older OS compatibility can be problematic.
“runs great”
“really quiet”
Everyday users appreciate the fast USB 3.0 transfers, easy plug-and-play setup, lightweight portability, and the extra USB ports, Ethernet adapter, and card reader. Common praise centers on quiet operation and satisfactory burning speeds, while recurring complaints involve compatibility with older operating systems, limited card-slot simultaneity, and the 100Mbps Ethernet cap.
