Overpriced, doesn't do what I need it to
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this for my 13" MacBook Pro 2020, model A2338. I didn't know "USB" meant standard USB-Type A, not a Type-C. You can get one of these regular USB CD/DVD drives at Walmart for a fraction of the cost, as well as the adapter for converting USB-A to USB-C, which luckily I already have, also from Best Buy. When I inserted my Transformers DVD into it, it took about 10 seconds and then spit the DVD right back out, basically making this completely useless. If anyone has suggestions for it to work, please let me know! Because watching a movie in bed is much easier with my 13" MacBook Pro than my heavy Alienware laptop! As for the good, yes, it does work. I popped in my Steelheart CD to test it, and it took a a few seconds to open up the Apple Music app to show the list of tracks, and I immediately thought, OMG this darn thing just ate my CD! LOL I am also very pleased that it is silver, which matches my MacBook Pro. Yes, I am OCD about dumb little things like that.

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.

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.

Study external drive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a must buy if you are still reading or burning CDs or DVDs and you want to buy one of the new skinny iMacs. It is a very reliable little drive that draws its power from the USB connection, so there is only one cable to attach to you computer.
