Quality product, as expected from Apple
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this drive mostly to copy music from CDs to the laptop and to ultimately transfer the music to an iPod. The device works wonderfully. The drive may also be used to play DVDs. Rarely, it seems, there is much other use for drive units as most instructions or software upgrades can be downloaded from the web.

Good for what it is
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was told by the guy at Best Buy and my husband that this played DVD AND Blue-rays. We get home and it only plays DVDs, which sucks since most of mine & my husband's movie collection consists of Blue-rays. It works great and plays all my DVDs though, even the ones that are a little scratched or burned DVDs. i just wish the guy selling it to me knew more about the product.

USB-Type C needed for new Macs
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.So, the drive itself is good. It does exactly what you want it to do. Here's the issue: It comes with a regular USB connection. However, newer MacBooks only have Type-C ports. If you have all Type-C ports, then you need to buy the USB to USB-C adapter, and it needs to be the Apple version or it may not power this DVD drive. Apple...seriously...you only put USB-C ports on the new Macs, and sell a drive that doesn't come with a USB-C connection? For $80 it should come with the $20 adapter, or just have the USB-C connection on it to begin with.

Love it but pricey
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is a great peripheral but very expensive. I guess that's what I get for getting the MacBook Air instead of the Pro

Mac mini companion
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Since my new Mac mini lacks an internal CD/DVD drive, this was necessary so that I could load my music CDs into my iTunes account.

Easy to use
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Apples exterior disc drive was a no brainer to attach and use. The only thing I wish is that the cord was longer.

Best disk drive for macs
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love the simple plug and play. No buttons, lights, or any software required, just works. Using this with my 2019 15” MacBook Pro running macOS Mojave and it works great. Note: I tried using my usb c hub with this SuperDrive and it didn’t work. You have to use a passive usb c adapter, not a hub. With that small catch, I’d still recommend it. I cloned some disks with it using disk utility and it worked perfectly.

Apple usb external disc drive
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This will only work with other apple products/PC’s. Looks great, works great, not cheaply made like our last one. But our last one was generic and we could use it with any of our PC’s this one you can only use with your Apple PC’s.

First one a dud, second one great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the first one at the same time I purchased my computer. I didn't try it out for several days and when I did you could hear that it was trying to read the disc but had no success. I took it back and the clerk said he never knew of one not working. He gave me a new one and it has worked everytime. No complaints.
