What do I need? External CD Player
I use a fairly old Toshiba laptop in the house but it doesn't have a CD drive. But I think I can get an external drive and connect with USB?
But then I get confused by CD/DVD/OPTICAL jargon so what EXACTLY do I need. To play CD music DVDs? and perhaps to use the disc for back-ups (but this not essential).
And where is a good on-line store? Cost?
Thanks a lot
David

I ripped out the one had in the desktop ( which was junked ) for this purpose .
However turned out needed more connectors so didn't bother pursuing it , in fact you can pick up external drive DVD for the same price as the connectors ( ~ 12 quid)
But haven't had requirement for it , so haven't in fact bothered
