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.

    I was trying to make a decision between purchasing the Apple SuperDrive and a generic external disc drive, weighing the pros and cons of both. I decided to go with the Apple SuperDrive ultimately because I knew that it would retain more of a value over a generic external disc drive, and it was only $20 more. I prefer quality when I can afford it.

    Doesn’t work on MacBooks w/ an internal disc drive

    Bought this after my internal MacBook drive stopped accepting discs, only to find out this external drive only works on systems that did not come with an internal drive—what the heck? Seems like an odd limitation to implement on Apple’s part. Needless to say it was returned and I went with a $25 non-Apple option that works great!

    DVD/CD drive

    I have only recently purchased and used my DVD/CD player, but so far, so good. I am switching from a Toshiba laptop, where the DVD/CD player was built in to an external drive used for the macOS Sierra. The only thing I had trouble with was figuring out out to extract a CD once it was in. (No buttons on the hard drive.). I had to figure it out by asking Siri. Otherwise, everything is fine. I like that the outer case is sturdy and solid. If it accidentally fell on the floor, I doubt it would damage anything.
