Hello,
The CD drive of our laptop (Toshiba Satellite) is broken. I would like to replace it with an external drive/burner with standalone power (not 220 V) if possible.
I would also like it to connect to the TV to be used as a portable DVD player for the TV.
Is there such a product available at reasonable prices, or would it be better to opt for 2 separate devices?
Do you have any brand or model recommendations for me?
Thank you in advance

No, I think it needs an HDMI connection...?
I'm giving up on the TV, but I'm still looking for information about the PC (brand, specifications, ...)
I've already found this:
