A driver CD is not included, nor is it required. The installation is very easy. Connect and go.
The burner fässt good to me and is slipping on my PC. The only disadvantage, hence a star deduction, the cord may be slightly longer. These have been very short. The Brenner is not the quietest. You can hear him even if you are sitting right on the PC and would like to watch a movie. Whether this is a disadvantage, you have to test.
As a test I have a burned Blu-ray loaded to look at how fast the burner processes the data. It takes a while. I would say, estimated around 20 seconds until the film is played.
So far I am satisfied.
