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.

    Great Drive for MacBook Air M1

    This optical drive works great! I rated it 4 stars because Apple limits its compatibility to only select models. I have a 20" iMac which has a bad built in optical drive. I wanted to use this drive with that computer, but am unable to because this drive is not compatible with that computer. I was able to find a 3rd party slot loading optical drive that is compatible. As always, the service experience I had at our local Best Buy was excellent.

    The drive works great. Very easy to set up and use. Buyer beware though, don't expect to be able to use this to AirPlay DVDs to your television. Apple doesn't allow it.

    This is the current version of Apple's SuperDrive at a lower price over the recent holiday season. I thought I could live without it even though my new iMac and MacBook Air lack a DVD/CD drive. However, there are still occasions where that capability is still needed. Just plug this into a USB port and it is ready to go.
