Glad I got the Apple brand for an external disk drive.I had to spend a little more, but I feel comfortable knowing I can count on Apple for excellent support of their products, since I've been using them for close to 30 years.

The external drive is a needed item for the IMac/Macbook. Easy to move and attach to either, ready to go.

This extension is a necessary item for one with a collection of CDs.
To make copies, I believe from now on I'll use my Windows laptop with the software I am used to using there. I wanted to avoid writing the music files to my hard drive on the MacBook Pro, but with the iTunes software I could not avoid it. So my complaint is mostly with the iTunes software. I probably need to obtain somewhere the necessary software to copy disks. Otherwise, the USB SuperDrive is a good item.

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

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.

Being still in the early 2000's, I continue to burn dvd's. When I bought a new computer, I had to to get external DVD Drive. Being an iMac owner, this was the one to get. It works perfectly and its looks match my computer.

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

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.
