Customers are saying

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.

    This SuperDrive is great but wish I didn’t have to keep plugging it in and using one of only two direct connections

    A nice extra to allow you to play DVDs/CDs through the included cord which connects to your Macbook Air. The drive is quiet and seems very sturdy, which is nice for traveling purposes.

    This was definitely a great buy. Since my laptop doesn't have a place for CDs/DVDs, this is a great alternative, especially for the price. I've had no issues with it so far.

    Good product but you cannot connect it to HyperDrive - USB Type-C Hub. You must use a standard USB-C.

    It is a good unit, stable and reliable but a little slow. I may be spoiled by the speed of the usb 3 memory sticks and I haven't used a dvd written in so long that I'm just under-rating this because it did do a good job when I used it but Apple was right, it's really not needed.

    I purchased this drive for my MacBook Pro. It does the job but I find it unusual that they do not have a drive with a Thunderbolt 3 (USB-3) connector. In order to use the drive, you need to buy a Thunderbolt 3 to USB adapter cable.

    It's a disc drive, what else can you say about a disc drive? It works like a disc drive. My internal disc drive was not working correctly. The new e ternary disc drive fills the bill.

    This was a necessary upgrade to my computer. Now I can use different types of media on my apple computer. It also allows me to add music from my CD's to my iTunes account.
