It's called CD64 and is sort of a clone of the Doctor V64. I have one collecting dust here and will eventually get around to do a smal write up about it :-)

Probably a simple question but is it for copying games?

Well the only way of copying games with a CD64 is to attach it to a PC by using a custom parallel port PC card.

so its intended purpose is for testing codes and games on the 64 hardware without having to dump it to a cart?
