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.

    Mandatory for any newer Macs since Apple no longer includes an optical drive. Works great right out of the box, plug and play.

    Recently upgraded to MAC from Windows machine. Only one drive available, and at 8x is slower than I am used to. Works great but should be a lot faster and more comparable to Windows based units.

    If you're going to load CDs or DVDs to your iMac, I highly recommend getting this product, especially since the newer ones don't have a disc drive built in.

    With the Mac not having a disc drive built into it, this is a great option to have a disc drive to watch dvd's or install software that is available on disc only.

    New iMacs do not have an internal disc drive. Therefore this device is necessary until the rest of the computing world catches up to wireless downloads.
