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 Superdrive allows me to access all my archived DVD movies and CDs even with my new, drive-less state-of-art computer. Perfect!

    Very easy to set up and use. Very fast data transfer both ways. Not really thrilled with it being an external drive and not attached to the laptop

    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.

    We purchased this for our daughter. She has a MacBook Air and kept asking for an external drive. We got it for her and she's as happy as a clam. She can now watch her movies!

    Love the Design - More expensive than competitors.

    Works extremely well as one would expect from Apple. The cost was the only reason we considered competitor products; it was practically twice the price. So, if you're not a total Apple Geek, save your money and get a competitor's product. After all how much do you use these things today? Not much...

    The Apple disc drive cannot only be put away when not in use, but it also reads and writes on DVDs and CDs! A great way to back up your computer and make room for more music, movies, etc.

    While I am not enthused by Apple's deletion of DVD drives in their laptops - this is a solid device that is well crafted and appears to be well built (and is priced very well).

    I was sceptical at first buying a MacBook Pro without a built-in DVD but now I appreciate that it means computer can be thinner & an internal drive is one less thing to go wrong. I'd like it to be Blu-ray compatible too. Would be easier to carry & less likely to break over time if the USB cable was detachable.

    I bought this to go with my iMac 21.5 and it works great and does everything I need it to do. It plays my CD's and DVD's and records what I need recorded. What more could you ask of it.

    Although it would have been nice if the cd/DVD drive was an integral part of the computer, this unit is compact so doesn't take up much room. It operates very smoothly and functions perfectly.

    I love that it doesn't overheat like most laptops do that have cd drives or when using external devices they exude excessive heat from use.
