    An external hard drive is a must with an Apple desktop all in one. So why go cheap if you've already bought an Apple

    I am a light user of the drive. It is handy for travel and I don't need to carry the extra weight around when I don't need to use it.

    This is a good product. My only (minor) complaint is that some of the disks I've inserted have not downloaded properly to iTunes. Not sure if this is due to the drive or the actual disks. I'm satisfied with this purchase, though.

    Both the less expensive, not Apple one and it lasted about a month. This works great and is much better built than the other.

    My previous dvd drive died and I needed a new one. This one replaced that one. It just works. I used to leave it plugged in all the time, but I've begun to unplug it after use. Hopefully this will extend the life.

    I needed this because I got a new laptop with no optical drive. So far this works well for what I need. I only wish it had a USB-C connection instead of the older USB. It requires an adapter.

    works like a charm! Bought from best buy because it was cheaper than buying directly from apple, and did not affect the warranty.
