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.

    I like how small it is, and there is really NO setup, just plug it into the USB port. Sometimes though, it seems to "forget" there is a disk inside and I have to jump through hoops to get the disk to eject. Also, there weren't really what I would call directions with it to explain anything.

    This device handles all-comers, DVDs, CDs, and BluRays. Apple reliability, looks and functionality are all there. You need one of these to take best advantage of disk-based media. You won't be sorry.

    I have a MacBook Air, so this SuperDrive was a must to install certain software that is on discs or to watch DVDs, burn CDs, or listen to CDs. The SuperDrive is light weight to carry around in addition to my computer. Love it.

    Having a separate drive allow splitting the weight of all the electronics when traveling and lets us choose whether to leave the device at home or bring it along.

    The Geek squad were very polite and helped me to set up the proper programs. I was so happy because they explained and even highlighted the instructional book for me. I shook their hands and thanked them for all their work.

    Best to purchase an Apple product to use with an Apple product. Plugs right into the usb port, no power cords required. No worries. That's why you pay a little more for the item.

    Great product by apple. I give it 100 percent. My complaint about is that they took it out of the macs themselves that you know have to buy it separate and they did not even lower the cost of the computers

    I had an LG drive for my MacBook Pro that was plastic and broke after only a year of very limited use. This drive is so much better quality and seems like it can take more use.

    A basic necessity for an iMac

    This is of course a great quality item, I'm just bothered by the fact that it has to be purchased as an extra item to use with the iMac, rather than it being included. USB drives & connections may be the way of the future but CDs/DVDs are still very much present today! That's why I give it 4 stars not 5! Other than that it's a great quality item.

    I wasn't sure whether I would like this drive, but it has turned out to be excellent for the money and it's slim profile allows it to fit almost anywhere on the desktop.

    I bought this just in case I come across a time when I may need to insert a disk. I've had this external drive for a couple months now and so far haven't used it. A little pricy for something that is hardly used anymore. Would be better if it was compatible with blue ray disks.
