First of all, plug and play means one is able to connect a device onto a computer which their computer recognizes which allows them to instantly use the device. Plug and play devices usually install the software needed for them to function instantly after they are connected.

Other devices which do not have a plug and play feature usually include a dvd included in the retail box which one must install before hand, in order for the device to work.

therefore, plug and play is a very useful function which saves you from the hassle of installing separate driver software.
