    Sometimes you just run into a situation where you need an external CD/DVD drive and this little beauty does exactly that. I think Apple over charges for them but as I have never had an abnormal malfunction from Apple products, I'm happy to pay.

    Bought the 13" Macbook Pro with retina display. I bought this in case I ever need it for a CD or DVD. Plus, I had a BB coupon, which helped the cost.

    Great add-on to the iMac. While it'd be wonderful if DVD/CD/blue came internal to the iMac, I understand the cloud, portability issue apple is trying to,address.

    Another great product from Apple. Very easy to set up and use. The price was a little more than some others but well worth the money for the reliability factor.

    Have only used once since purchased and it is super simple. Since the new MacBooks do not have a built in CD/DVD drive, I opt to purchase the external drive.

    It does what it is supposed to do with the purchase of proper adapters. Wish Apple just included these in the laptops so you didn’t have to spend a few hundred dollars in add ones to get what was sold a few years ago.

    Nice accessory to the new iMacs. Allows you to use cds and dvds because the is no slot for them on the new computers. Just plug in the usb and start using.

    I needed an external DVD drive for my Apple laptop because it did not have an internal DVD drive. This drive met all of my expectations. Glad I made the purchase.

    When I brought my Mac I didn't think that a disk drive was an option. Now that I have it my Mac is complete. And as a bonus it works with Windows also

    Not everyone needs a disc drive anymore which is why Apple did away with it, but I am glad I purchased it for the few times I've needed it.

    Since my Apple computers do not have a CD or DVD drive, this was an excellent product. You don't need to install anything, just plug the device into the usb.
