Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the SuperDrive 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive's ease of use, USB connectivity, and compact size. Many appreciate its compatibility with various systems and its performance in burning and reading discs. However, some customers find the price to be a bit high.

    The new iMac's no longer come equipped with a CD/DVD drive necessitating the purchase of the Super Drive. So far it performs well enough but is definitely slower that the built in drive on our previous Mac.

    This works like it should. If you have a Macbook that doesn't have a disc drive, this is what you are looking for. The first time I purchased this item, I received a dud. It sounded like it was scratching the discs that I put in, and it had trouble reading. But this wasn't an issue as I returned it and got another that worked just fine. It would be five stars, but the usb connection is permanently attached to the drive. It would be preferable to have an option of different usb connections.

    Good product, same as any dvd drive previous for mac, but thought that it should have been included with the computer, whether built in or not. We are not at a place that only USB's are useful to most people yet...
