Howdy!,

Can a CD/DVD Drive be used with a Chromebook?

I have mentioned external Drives to my Friend who uses a Chromebook
and He is thinking about buy one.

I Searched with DuckDuckGo for information about Chromebooks and CD/DVD drives
and one website page:

https://www.chromebookhq.com/chromebook-dvd-drive/

 says:
"In summary, a Chromebook optical drive:

    Can read disks, but with only accepted file types
    Can play music from accepted file types, like mp3
    Can play movies from accepted file types, like mp4
    Cannot burn files to a CD or DVD"

Does Anyone use a CD or DVD external drive with their Chromebook?

Thanks! for any comments,
