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 don’t use a DVD with my computer very often but it’s nice to have the option. Read/write makes it even better. Don’t forget the USB-C adapter if you have a newer laptop

    Device only works when MacBook has no DVD even a broken one. I bought the drive to replace the internal DVD. My mistake,but it wasn't stated in the online write-up. I returned it for full credit & got the correct drive assisted by Kim sales consultant in Yonkers store.

    The latest version of the Mac Mini computer comes without a DVD drive which makes it impossible to load some software or to burn CDs from iTunes. This SuperDrive enables these functions at a reasonable price.

    As always, Apple products are the best as I have owned a MacBook Pro for many years. So I traded the old off for a new one and I am very happy with my purchase.

    The salesperson was very quick to acknowledge my need, showed me the location, and walked with me to it while describing the product to me. It was exactly what I needed at a great Best Buy price.

    I purchased this drive about a month ago an I have no complaints. I use it to play dvds for my son (of course I would have loved this to play Blu-ray but it doesn’t). I also use to put pictures on disks. I always seem to loose the little thumb drives so disk storage is the route I prefer.

    it worked great for what needed just that it has to be on a flat surface so if your on your couch with your laptop on your lap it won't work that well

    Although nowadays almost all software is downloadable from the internet, it is great to have this drive when you need it. I do wish it offered a little more speed, but it is very serviceable.

    With many computers not coming equipped with CD players/readers. It's a good thing Apple still makes this as an accessory. Especially when archiving your old CD's into a playlist.

    I tried several different options. All were cheaply made and flimsy. Should have just went with this Apple drive in the first place.

    Working excellent. Looks as sleek as the computers. Do a lot of recording and use it burn my music to put on other computers. Like to have a unit from Apple that will do multiple discs at once.

    Need a DVD drive at times...Having it externally to hook up means, I don't have to worry about built in "breaking" Easy to hook up to laptop, works great!

    This item doesn’t work with all Mac computers specially older models. If you cannot insert a disk once the burner is installed, it is not compatible. Check specs first

    ...but I do, because I own a three-year-old MacBook Pro, which came without an optical drive. :/ Oh, well—it could be worse: I could own a *new* MacBook Pro, which comes with hardly any ports, never mind an optical drive. The external drive shouldn't be necessary, but it is, and it works great.
