Did you need to download/purchase any additional software or can you put in the software it comes with and get to work?

The Pawtec is plug and play, No software came was my Pawtec Slim External Player/recorder,(CD/Dvd/Bul-ray) but if you intend to play Blu-ray movies or record Blu-ray you need to use a third party program like Cyberlink Power DVD 13.

It doesn't come with any software and you don't need anything for it to work. Just plug and play. I use my other software to burn or create disks but you don't need them for this drive to work.

The device didn't come with any software. The device was picked up automatically by Windows 8. After plugging it in, I was able to play a BluRay movie using the free media player VLC.

I am running windows 8.1 (64) on a laptop. I probably loaded a driver that came with the drive, but I did not download anything. I have had no problems at all except that I would like to operate throught a usb3 hub and that is not reliable.I use the unit heavily and highly recommend it.good luck!

No. It requires a computer with the appropriate software installed to work.

You need a computer and a monitor:) You will need an internet connection to activate the software

You need to download and install the software from the manufacturers website. The software included in the package is obsolete.

I don't know. Could never get software to open. I purchased software but it only had trial version key to open. Contacted support and was given another key code that when plugged in said I needed to purchase a license to run the software. Did you get yours to work or are you looking to buy? If you haven't bought it yet I would say don't.

No you have to install its software and the software can be installed in linux, I have installed in Ubuntu, it works very well.
