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.

    Occasionally I find independent music artists that are not available on iTunes, so I have to download their CD’s to my library. Since a disc drive is no longer part of a iMac or MacBook. I knew that I would need this equipment.

    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

    Does not travel well

    I have gone through 4 of these. They are great as long as they sit on your desk and they don't get moved a lot. I keep the original packaging when traveling and not one of them works at the end of a trip and I hand carry them in my carry-on bags. Best Buy has replaced them each time but the product is not sturdy which is surprising for an Apple Product.

    I bought the external CD/DVD drive as I don't use these items in my laptop enough to warrant buying another laptop with one built in. My other MacBook Pro has one built in I can use at any time. I like the fact that without it, the laptop is much lighter.

    Amazing product! Would recommend getting a computer without a disc drive and buying one of these! You save money and you don't have the extra weight of it every time you carry your computer!

    however, it was hard to figure out how to use it. As a PC user for so many years, I have found the MAC BOOK and external drive difficult to use..couldn't figure out how to make the computer read the disc. Having said that, I realize that the reason I bought the MAC products is their quality of construction.

    Since Apple does not include DVD drives with their computers, one must purchase a DVD drive if one wants to utilize its various functions. I prefer the Apple version and I'm happy with my purchase.

    I wish Apple would have continued to offer one standard in my new iMac, but they don't. So here I had to buy one. I could have gone with any brand, but I have to admit it, this one looks as good as all of my mac products. so there you go...
