    I really enjoy my MacBook Air but still like burning some CDs or playing DVDs. The Superdrive makes this possible. Just plugged it in and it worked.

    I bought this external hard drive, because unlike the previous iMac the new ones no longer have a cd drive. It is sleek and compact and has the same finish as the iMac.

    I had a very hard time deciding to purchase such an expensive computer since I only use it to surf the web, send emails, watch movies, and play brain games. I kept going back and forth, but finally I bought it because it was so sleek and beautiful. I had a 2010 Mac Book Pro which I loved, but there is no comparison. This computer is really fantastic. I am not a computer expert, but I plan to learn how to use the many features it has to offer. The colors and images on the screen are amazing. The speakers are also wonderful. I'm glad I bought it !!!! I can't stay off it now.

    My son needed a computer with a CD drive because some of the course packs came with CD's. We bought this CD drive because the sales person recommended it. It works great.

    Amazingly fast performance for an external drive. I keep it on my desk and plug it in on the rare occasion (once a month maybe) that I need to burn or read a CD or DVD.

    this product does with it is supposed to do, I guess you are paying the apple tax for the design and quality of the device but nowadays any $20 Drive will do the same exact thing. so if design is not important to You, go with the cheapest option.

    The new iMac computers come without a drive. I am not a big fan of this decision by Apple. This drive is easy to connect and works great. A "must get" product.

    Apple took out the drives on all the new laptops and even on the new Mac Pro Cylinder. If you need an external drive, might as well get the apple brand.
