    Loved this product, all you have to do is connected to the computer and presto, it connects automatically. You don't have to upload any application or special software.

    This makes It very easy to play or import music or watch dvds on newer Mac computers that don’t have a drive built In. Works very well.

    This is a great accessory for MacBooks that don’t have the USB port in them. DVDs play well and it was not expensive!

    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.

    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.

    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.

    It was a good price, and will be handy to have. I like that my computer is lighter for traveling since I don't always need the drive. And the shipping was quick.

    Since the new computer is so slim & doesn't have a slot on the side for a disk, this External super drive is nice & neat and sits out of the way .Works well.

    I had to get a new MacBook...they no longer have a disk drive. I guess we are moving away from disk/cd use/storage and this is another way for Apple to keep taking more of my money (luckily, I got it when it was marked down/on sale). The new MacBooks cost the same or more, but without the disk drive/memory card & USB ports. Do I really need it? To tell you the truth...I have a few CDs that I still need to transfer to my iTunes library (that I pay Apple to store in the cloud for me). After that, it'll probably never get used again. Don't buy one...Borrow a friend's.

    I purchased this Super Drive because my 27" iMac didn't come with one onboard, After using it, I rather like having a separate detached drive.

    I purchased this drive after purchasing a non brand. The non brand stopped working after a month. The Apple super drive hasn't given any problems. No need to disconnect everyday or worried it won't open when disk is ejected. This is a great item to have
