Many appreciate its compatibility with various systems and its performance in burning and reading discs. However, some customers find the price to be a bit high.

    I've read many reviews of unhappy customers, but I am completely satisfied with the product. It has worked well so far for about 3-4 dozen CDs. Only downside is that I feel it's very overpriced. I wouldn't buy a second one if this one died on me solely due to the cost.

    This drive works great and sits neatly on the iMac stand. I do not loose desk space because I can sit my pencil holder on top, so the only potential issue is a non-issue.

    I bought this for someone who was just starting using an iPad, and had no mechanism for adding music to her computer, save, purchasing from iTunes. This drive filled the bill perfectly.

    I would much prefer to have this built - in but it is lightweight and it's functional for what it says it does. Haven't had any issues and it's compatible with my laptop.

    Since the MacBook Air did not come with an internal CD/DVD drive I needed an alternative. This is super easy to use.

    Nice hard drive

    For the money. it's worth it! A hard drive is a must have in every business. I can burn all my files onto a disk and store them for later review or upload them off the disk when needed.Downside, The hard drive is external and takes up dest space. You'll have to make allowance for. It would be nice if it had some kind of external mounting bracket you could use that could be mounted at the bottom of the computer that keeps the hard drive off the desk and on the computer incase of coffee spills and less clutter.

    Still uploading and burning discs with my MacBook

    Despite the fact I have a new MacBook Pro and I don’t use cd’s too often, I still use cd’s and burn them as well. This SuperDrive has worked really well for me. It’s price is decent enough. I really onLu bring it out when needed. If you are looking into this and only have usb-c ports, you need to find a usb c to a with the a being the female end. This is because the SuperDrive still uses a usb a.

    The disk drive has worked well for me. I looked online at bestbuy first saw it. Then about a week later bestbuy sent a discount on the item. I've been happy with it.

    I bought this to use with my new iMac. It's great because it just plugs into the computer with the USB port and it's ready to use. An added bonus is that it looks great on my desk.

    We still need the optical drive so kids can watch DVDs on trips. This one gets the job done. We have two of these and no issues with either. They are light and compact.

    I looked at other options and there are cheaper options out there but let us be honest we want an apple product that it built well, functions perfectly, looks good and has no issues - so this is it. Why look elsewhere to save $30
