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.

    I bought a new MacBook Pro and of course, it didn't come with a CD drive so I just bought Apple's drive. Works great. Just wish Apple kept the CD drive in the laptop. It can be a pain to hook it up, but in all honesty, I don't use a CD drive much.

    When we need to use DVD’s, this is a great tool to use. We can play a certain DVD on the MacBook and have it air played to the Apple TV. This is really neat because there is no DVD player in our living room tv

    Works as described. Nothing special about it- probably should’ve gone with an off brand to save money but it seems well made.

    We purchased this external USB SuperDrive to use with our new iMac 27" computer. Our older iMac 24" included the drive and we used it very often, so it was an easy decision to purchase the Apple SuperDrive for our new computer.

    Excellent, it works great with my Macbook Pro. Only thing is that you have to plug it directly into a port. It will not work if you connect it through a multiport adapter.

    bought a MacBook Air for our daughter for College graduation to replace the 6 year old one she had. The new Air does not have a drive(that's why it's so light) so added the drive so she could download CD's etc to the new Air. Great add on for the price

    Paid a little extra to have the Apple model - there were other super drives that were almost half the price, but then again, I love everything Apple. Quite satisfied with this drive, no issues so far.

    Yes there are cheaper external cd drives, but I went with a product I knew would be compatible right out the gate with my MacBook Air. Don't try save money on the cheaper models buy Apple.
