Only go Apple for your optical drive on your Mac. Others say they are compatible but beware. It's worth the money

Too bad for the cost of the Mac book itself this doesn't come included or already built into the laptop.

If you have old disks, you'll need this for the new MacBook Pro since it doesn't have one already.

It certainly isn't the best... but it gets the job done. I was really hesitant to buy this at first because of the reviews but I really needed a cd drive because the newest macs don't have them anymore. I love cds. I have been using this for hundreds of cds to download them to my itunes and it still works beautifully. The only reason why i dont give it 5 stars is because the cord is WAY too short and theres no way to change that. Also i have had some issues with 2 cds where it would not eject so i have force eject it (command E) but then it would work

Initially I was having the same experience as so many others. It would not work with my MacBook Air, but when I purchased the Apple USB adapter there were no issues at all. I trashed my off brand adapter for that reason.

Works as advertised.
I like the idea I can share the drive between our other computers easily.
