Well built, looks great, does just what you want it to do and is expensive. Everything you want when you buy an Apple product.

Since my daughter already had an Apple computer, we wanted to stay with the Apple external DVD drive. It was easy to connect to the computer and she is using it regularly. I do wish it was able to view BluRay.

I use my Macbook in a vertical dock (Hedge), which only leaves one USB port exposed on the Mac. The problem is, I need to connect a printer and this drive. To solve my problem, I bought a USB hub, however, this drive will NOT work with a hub (even a powered hub, like mine). It must be hooked directly to the Mac. The USB cord permanently attached to this drive is very short, so I purchased a USB extension cable. The drive WILL work with the extension cable.

When I bought the Disc player I thought it would be loud but it was very quiet. If you buy a new IMac it is worth 80 dollars to buy the disc player

Apple sells it for more and Best Buy has sales. It works great and I love the option to cover the product under the insurance coverage policy.

Though I bought this with my I Mac I have found I do not use it as much as I thought I would as most programs and apps can be downloaded right from the Apple store. It is a great item to have just incase it is needed however so I am satisfied with the purchase.

Perfect addition to my MacBook. Still cannot believe that Apple removed the CD from their laptops though, but that's a different discussion…

Plug and play. Went with an apple drive because it has so many good reviews. I used it right away to add some music to my computer.
