    I hate extra peripherals so personally I’d take the adds weight and have the DVD player in the computer. Since I’m in the minority I’m glad this little guy is available.

    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.

    The Superdrive does exactly what is is supposed to, by providing an external optical drive for my Airbook and all-in-one Mac. Simply, it works.

    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.
