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.

    Fast and easy to use. Sticks that it comes as extra rather than built in computer. Just extra space.

    I’m very impressed with the construction of this CC DVD player writer. The case is heavy duty and appears to be made of aluminum. I have it hooked up to my iMac and so far it has operated flawlessly for both reading and writing.

    For playing dvds , CDs, or burning them. This is the ticket, if you have a MacBook Pro depending upon the year you will most likely need an additional adapter so you can plug the apple drive in. Also it’s tricky to eject your disc. Command e is the easiest way

    This device works great on my 27” iMac 5K, it’s all what you can expect from a superdrive but in a external form. The only problem is that it only works on devices that does not include a disc drive from factory, it didn’t work on my 13” macbook pro with a broken drive or in my mac mini without the internal drive. If you are looking to get this for a mac that used to have a disc drive, this will not work for you.

    After trying other drives that did not work, we settled on this one. It did the job, but it is a bit pricy.

    Read the box.. Its only for machine which did not originally come with a DVD drive. I took mine out and replaced it with a SSD drive. Then decided while on the road to purchase an external to use from time to time. Not happening.. so if you took your original out and need a replacement, get the LG.

    Ability to connect right to USB is easy. Ejecting is as simple as ejecting from Macbook desktop, with newer Macbook Air there is no keyboard eject key. No issues with disc insertion. Definitely easy to use and not have weight on your Macbook. This external accessory is much more user friendly.

    Once I figured out that I had connected it upside down, it was simple to use. Upside down, the DVD/CD kept ejecting.
