Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good quality as expected from Apple easy to setup.

I like that it is so small and lightweight as well.

easy to use , just plug it in and your ready to go.

Needed to run some of my ole disc that I keep in archives, Works great with the MacBook Pro with bar

This is a great addition to our Mac. The only installation is plugging in a USB port. Doesn't get much easier than that!

Was kinda nervous about getting this drive based on some of the reviews, but it has worked for me so far.

After buying an off-brand drive to save a few bucks, I learned my lesson. It had many problems... noisy, slow, unable to read many discs. My Apple Superdrive has none of those issues. It stands up to it's brand's reputation.. quality.

Purchased this to go with my new MacBook since they don't have a hard drive. I have not used it much but it works great. Definitely good to have for burning disc or doing backups.

Like it so much its so compact and serve my purpose

It was disappointing to see that new MAC computers are omitting an optical drive. When I needed to replace my laptop, because I found it still necessary to have an optical drive, I purchased this external unit to complete my basic computing needs. Seems to work well so far, but it is a bit less convenient.

It does what it's supposed to do. I bought it mainly as a port to copy CDs to my hard drive. The only reason for not giving it the 5th star is that it does not support Blu-ray disks. I can't figure out exactly why Apple is so reluctant to incorporate the Blu-ray format into their machines. If there is an upside, however, it's that the SuperDrive is still way less expensive than any of the 3rd party Blu-ray drives and software that would enable a Mac to play the format.

I'm not going used it that much but its there when I need it. And it work just great and the size is supper.

Bought to go with new Mac desktop. Works as advertised. Used to copy a CD to hardrive for parents. Played well, No issues.

I was at first concerned when I heard that apple had removed the disk drive from the "standard" features on their computers. Then I saw the computers had gotten so thin that there was literally NO place to put them. $79 is a bit more than "off brands" cost, but apple quality is probably worth it.

Thsi drive works well but I wished it had an Eject button on the drive itself

GREAT little drive. I can disconnect to use on other computers and it uses a really small "footprint", leaving lots of desk space for other things. The thinness of it is a bonus too, as I can stack other items on top, since it is aluminum and can support the extra weight.

Great easy to connect product from apple. External connection, great for movies, burning CD's onto your computer

Makes downloading my music to my computer an ease.

Allows you to have full access to stored media, software and files while maintaining a lightweight notebook on the go.

Easy to use and set up and good deal for the price
