Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's too bad the Mac Book Pro's don't have a DVD player, but this player serves it's purpose. but the USB cable should be longer so that the DVD player can be placed in different locations. with as short as it is it placement can only be on the left side of the computer.

Plugged it in and it worked! Doesn’t get any better than that.No instructions,no diagrams,just plug it in!

I was very disappointed Apple discontinued cd drives in iMac computers and had to buy this add on one. It works.

I just want this dvd driver to record pictures in a dvd to share in family activities. Im surprised when the burning process is simple and fast.

Let's be honest, some companies still require use of a CD/DVD to download or update programs. I don't need to carry the drive with me, but I have it when I need it.

Solid external drive. The read and write speeds are fast enough. The burn speeds are nice and fast. The only down side is that the usb cable is permanently attached to the external drive. The design is very similar to that of the Apple laptops power block. They fray easily.

Does the job in reading some archaic discs I have in my office. Burns to CD's - yes people still do that :-) I wish it had a longer cord and Blu-ray connectivity. Works fine - just average in my opinion.

This thing works! If you’re looking for something that doesn’t work, look elsewhere.

it's an apple product, so it works. if you happen to not like apple products, your loss. not sure why you'd try to buy something else, unless you're a clown.

I have a Apple MacBook and needed this software to use with my Mac book. I can say I am satisfied with the price and product since it is an Apple product.

Perfect with my iMac 24. Quick set up and flawless performance.

great upgrade, lighter and faster than my old one.

This external drive was difficult to understand how it worked. Instructions not very good. Once we figured it out we were pleased that we were able to look at DVDs. Other laptops (non-Apple) have internal DVD drives. All Apple products are pricey.

I had a scratched dvd that won’t play in regualr DVD player or other brand dvd device but it played well in this dvd external drive....loved it

I really enjoy this product! I love having CDs for my music and it downloads them fairly quick onto my itunes. Would buy again in a heartbeat

Works well with my Mac. I didn't have a problem with any of my DVDs. I still would like to see if I can create DVDs from personal pictures.

I purchased in order to load CD's onto MacBook Pro. It is not as fast as I had hoped but all external drives seem to be slower than somebuilt-ins.

Initially we were sold a junk hard drive that didn't work that was an open item piece. I was able to return it and get a new one at same cost. Excellent customer service. Got this so all I would need to do in the future is update individual pieces and not the entire unit.

great product if you miss having it built in and want something compact to add on for a reasonable price.

I have used this drive repeatedly and it has worked perfectly every time. It did not require any setup on my MacBook Pro. I highly recommend this item.
