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. A minor drawback mentioned is the lack of a physical eject button and a short power cord.

    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.

    After a long web search, I was able to find Windows drivers for this Apple device. It works very nicely - writing files to both CDs and DVDs. My old drive had died, and now I"ll be able to take this one to an Apple (Mac) when my PC eventually dies - yes, it will not be obsolescent in my larger plan for eventual transition.
