    Since my iMac did not come with a CD/DVD player/recorder, this item fits the bill. I use it frequently and have had no problems except if the disk gets stuck. For that information to take care of that, just check the Internet for the "how to."

    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.

    Coming from a HP PC with a built in optical drive, I felt I had to have a DVD/CD drive for my new iMac desktop. Since the newer iMacs don't have a built in drive, I decided I'd try this one. It works as expected, and I'm happy with it.

    I like using Apple products with the Apple computers. This DVD is durable, not made from plastic. No tray sliding out, easy to use and works great.

    Had no idea the Mac doesn't automatically come with a drive. This is an absolute must have! If you are still a disc and DVD user like me you can't go wrong with this.

    The hard drive was easy to connect and is so small that I hardly notice it on the desk. This is exactly what I wanted. I was also surprised that this was under $100.

    The portable, external DVD player/burner requires no set up, plays DVDs with ease, and is a solid made device. It provides good value for the money spent. Happy I made the purchase.

    It's a dvd/cd drive and works great. If you have an older iMac that has a built in drive and it is broken...from my experience this one doesn't work on those machines.

    It's nice having my all in one iMac. But adding this drive topped it off. I find it easier for uploading from discs than the internet. And I found it easy to burn both DVDs and CDs.
