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.

    This was my second CD/DVD player in less than 2 weeks. I should have purchased the Apple CD/DVD drive first then I would not have had any problems.

    I have had no issues to date and have used over thirty times since buying two months ago. I have older mac air so the connection wasn't an issue. It may be for newer macs.

    Every now and again you need to reach into the past to download software versus utilizing current technology. This is a good back-up for that

    Works great and love the design. Goes great with the Mac Mini. Just wish that the cord was a bit longer.

    Used this to upload pictures from a photo session from a CD. The only problem with Mac books is they don’t have a disk drive and this completely solves this problem

    Biggest complaint about the Mac is no disc drive, making it impossible to download certain programs. This drive works great, just hate that you have to purchase it separately.

    Granted, this CD/DVD player with ability to burn your CD library is a little pricey, but it is worth the cost. Seamless plug and play and already loading more CD's into my iTunes library.

    The SuperDrive works fabulously, but make sure yours is working before you take it home! These boxes tend to get dropped a lot by people. My first one was defective and wouldn't mount anything. But once I swapped it out for a working one- it was to my expectations.

    I had purchased one for my other iMac. At first I thought well I already own one. But always good to have a spare. Great price as well.

    Don't use a CD very often, but when I do, the external superdrive is easy to use. Right out of the box, I plugged the unit in and was able to download some pictures to the CD without problems.

    Always worry I'm not going to have enough room on my hard drive. This little gem takes away the angst. We bought two -- one for home and one for work -- and couldn't be happier!

    After trying an off brand drive and being extremely disappointed I decided to go with the SuperDrive. I am so glad I made the investment. It reads and writes disks very fast and is very durable.

    The hidden enclave took some getting used to, but there is something magical about watching CDs or DVDs "disappear" and "reappear" automatically, I can't imagine using a manual drive ever again!

    I bought the SuperDrive for my MacBook Pro and it works extremely well. If you are having trouble getting the DVD, all you need to do is drag the disk icon from your desktop to the trash bin!

    Unit is compact and ready to use. I do not want to spend a lot of time setting things up and dealing with integration issues that you might run into with different companies software or hardware.

    In my estimation you can always rely on Apple products for quality and long-term value. Their support is second to none. I highly recommend this and other Apple products.
