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.

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 had an issue with it initially where I couldn't get it to work on my MacBook because of region timezone setting etc. I had to set it up on a different MacBook in order to get it to work on my Mac. Wish it reads blu-ray. Otherwise works well

Apple Superdrive is great for audio CDs

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.

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.

I went to Apple because is is more reliable. Had an LG Drive that did not last long at all. Even though it is a little more expensive I have never had trouble with an apple drive before so I went back to Apple.

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.

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

This external DVD/CD drive had to be purchased since the new iMacs do not have an internal driver anymore. The drive works well, doesn't overheat and has a reason download speed that allows quick copies of cds to iTunes.
all-in-all, a reasonable performer under $100.
One improvement would be that it could be used with my windows laptop for work on the road.
