    I had an older model imac that still came with disc drive and upgraded to the newer model without the drive and it just didn't feel right. I've only used a few times so far and not for burning since no one uses CD's anymore but I will try to use it soon.

    The superdrive is really quite necessary now that so many laptops do not have built in drives. I create DVD's of movies and photos for clients/friends with material just too large to handle with email -- and you know the disc is going to last and not accidentally get deleted.

    Well this is some old school technology, a super drive, CD burner for a Mac. Don’t like that it won’t play movies on dvd, like my old macs would, I think it’s because copyright issues not sure why but none of dvd movies play on it. Anyway I got this for so I can still see my own homemade movies, photos, files, that have stored on cd’s.

    Just what you need since Apple doesn't supply one.

    this DVD R/W isJust what you need since Apple doesn't supply one on their system. You would think that the cost of the Mac would include a dvd player and read write unit but it doesn't. so you have to spend more to buy one.

    I chose an Apple Super Drive over LG due to the fact that I like Apple Products and what the sales person told me about the Apple Super Drive. I wanted to watch movies on my computer and download photos to discs for friends. I have watched movies and the SD worked perfectly.

    I couldn’t get this drive to work on my 2023 MacBook Air. But, When I plugged it in to my 2020 I-mac this drive did exactly what it is supposed to do.

    I got an iMac and ran into the problem of burning dvds of family adventures. I would edit it then put it onto a thumb drive, move it over to my Macbook pro to burn it. Getting rid of the macbook so needed a way to burn the dvd's This thing work well and has no problems at all.
