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.

This is my first external DVD drive for my Apple Mac and it works great.

Great product. Im disappointed to learn i could not burn songs from apple music using this product. But for what its worth im able to do everything else i wanted to do.

This thing is a must if you have a any of the newer apples. I don't know why they are getting rid of the CD drives on their computers. We do a lot of pictures and still have a bunch on CDs so we needed this thing. Works great.

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...

Super small and compact and perfect for installing CD programs.

Works as expected. Like the way it looks as it matches my other Apple Products

IT'S UNFORTUNATE THAT WHEN WE BOUGHT THE "NEWER" VERSION OF THE SAME MAC PURCHASED 2 YEARS AGO - THAT THEY CHANGE STUFF JUST TO MAKE IT THINNER. SO YOU GAIN A THINNER COMPUTER, BUT NOW YOU HAVE TO BUY THE EXTRA EQUIPMENT. NOT SURE IT'S ALWAYS WORTH IT

Invaluable to any Mac user who still relies on occasional need for a disc drive. It’s a pain they’ve done away with everything but USB-c but this is handy for when you need it.

Perfect to mate with your apple computers without built in hard drives!

Easy to use. Great to have when you want to download old school cd's.

Every laptop I have ever owned came with a built in optical drive.It is very hard to find one now.All of the new laptops that I looked at do not have a built in optical drive.I bought the Apple super drive and so far it works great.

I recently bought a MacBook Air and didn't think I needed a CD drive but I was wrong. Went to Best Buy to pick this item up and I love it. Now my laptop has a CD Drive and when I'm done I store it away and my laptop is as light as air. Thanks Best Buy!

Daughter needed for college. Works well as MacBook has no internal dvd drive.

The SuperDrive 8x External USB Double-Layer Dvd±rw/CD-RW Drive by Apple is the best DVD drive I have used. It reads older DVD and CD disks that I thought were dead because they were not accessible through other drives that I have on PCs.

This external drive goes great with those who have a MacBook Air and are looking to connect any kind of CDs. The USB connection is simple and does not require any work to connect.

The drive works fine. I'm still cranky with Apple for eliminating the internal optical drive from the Macbook Pro. I frequently need to burn/read DVD's, and this feels like a step back to the old days of having to carry a bag full of peripherals around.

A super drive to let you retrieve all your old off-line files with your new Mac. It comforts my wife that she could do this even though all that stuff has been stored up in the iCloud for over a year. Quiet comfort is my goal.

I replaced an LG DVD/CD drive with the Apple Superdrive for my IMac desktop as the LG's audio recordings were flat and sounded like it was monaural. The Apple drive's sound was a great improvement, and the extra cost was worth it.
