This is a good product. The only problem I had with it was that you can only eject a movie via laptop. There is no button on the device. We had trouble ejecting on the laptop once & couldn't get the movie out. Otherwise, depending on your laptop, it's easy to use.

Works very well, and it is extremely portable. My only complaint is that I wanted to buy one with a USB-C cable for my new MacBook, but there is not one available.

I needed an external cd/dvd drive and found a great product from Apple. Works efficiently and seamlessly with my iMac. Much better than the non-Apple product I used previously.

Unfortunately Apple doesn't include an optical drive on the new iMacs, but for a few more bucks this sleek external USB double layer drive keeps you in business.

Added CD/DVD capability to an new Apple laptop my wife bought. Newer computers delete CD/DVD from units to reduce size, weight and power consumption. Newer storage is cloud, SD or thumb drive. However, still need to access legacy software on CD and movies on DVD. This fills the bill.

Since MacBooks don't have a CD drive built in, this is a necessity for my daughter's college classes. Works just as advertised. Definitely worth buying genuine Apple product.

Due to the fact Apple is no longer making computers with CD drives, this is a great add on for their computers. It plugs into the USB port and you are good to go.

This super drive works seamlessly with my mac book pro. It's a necessity for me since I still play and record D.V.D's and C.D's from my library.
