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 one when they first came out, I did not like the band on it so I returned it to the Apple store. Saw this one at Best Buy and I knew that I had to have it. I ordered it, got it sooner than expected and I LOVE it!

    Expensive Optical Drive

    The Apple SuperDrive works great, but it sure is expensive. I would also have expected a nice case since it usually needs to stay in a drawer or be carried separate. It is amazing that Apple can get people to pay such a high base price for Macs, especially when the required accessories are so expensive.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

    I needed to view pictures from a disc and my iMac didn't have a cd reader. Bought this. Works fine. Only thing that's annoying is, of course Apple is never all inclusive. Always have to purchase extra stuff.

    I love this and it makes a great addition to my Macbook Pro. I don't use it as much as I thought I would because a lot of discs I use aren't compatible with Mac. Haven't had any issues with it.

    This is a nice product for those who have a Mac laptop yet no disk drive anymore. It does whatever you need it to do. Keep in mind that the connection is USB-based so you will need a USB-C converter in order to use on modern laptops.

    The one downside of being older and purchasing newer MacBooks is the lack of a disc drive. This product is MORE than worth it if you enjoy using physical CDS, making mixtapes, etc.
