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.

    Not sure why Apple did not include a CD/DVD drive with MacBook Pro, but this device does the trick. Nice that it only requires USB connection and needs no additional power.
