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.

    Bought a new MAC mini recently, but unfortunately mac decided to not include a drive. Hence my need to buy one so I could load my photos and other things from CD or DVD. The drive is physically pretty heavy so I assume it made of quality components that I hope will last a lifetime! I would recommend this drive for anyone with a Mac that needs the ability for a drive.
