Most laptops nowadays don't come with an optical drive. Get something like this will be fine: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?reviews=all&Item=9SIA14J0CE0604&cm_re=external_cd_drive-_-9SIA14J0CE0604-_-Product

Its great other than the fact it doesn't have an Optical Drive. I would prefer if the laptop I picked had one since I collect music CDs and I want a way to get them into my music library. (I don't like dealing with iTunes)
