Customer Ratings & Reviews

Bought it for my mac to make cds. Very small can easy be carried around.

This optical drive works just fine. It's thin and relatively portable, but not as easy as if it were inside laptop. The drive works flawlessly though, so other than the extra cost associated with it, it's great!

I love how small and just fits under screen. Just know the eject button is on the keyboard. Works great.

Easy set up. Compatible with my mac book pro. Compact and quiet.

I need a rom drive for my older iMac and it works great and looks like it is part of the iMac.

It is up there in price but it is completely compatible with apple laptops. Easy to use.

Works great and fast! Love the sleek design & finish!

This is a really nice slimline drive that connects externally and works very well. great for watching movies too.

Bought this product along with the HYPERDRIVE DUO Hub. Both were new from box. The hyperdrive fit perfectly in my wifes Mackbook, but when she plugged in the SuperDrive unit to it the unit would not work. We plugged other items into the HYPERDRIVE DUO Hub and they worked fine so I returned the Superdrive for a replacement. I found that the new Superdrive did the same thing. Went to Walmart and bought a simple USB to C adapter cable in the Superdrive worked as advertised. I do recommend the product. Just make sure you buy the correct adapter cable and not the HYPERDRIVE DUO Hub.

Works great and I feel like it's almost a necessity to have a drive such as this one! Works fast and very quiet!

As an Apple computer enthusiast, I was disappointed to see the optical drive removed from the newest desktops and laptops. I understand that it reduces the computer's footprint, but burning CDs and DVDs is still something I do often. Purchasing the Apple SuperDrive is a no-brainer for those looking to burn data, music, and pictures to CDs. It is portable and only requires the attached USB cord to work. I have had no problems with it and am happy to have it at my disposal.

Like every Apple Device. Excellent in build & performance. Works right out of the box. No setup required.

I bought this SuperDrive together with MacBook. Like all Apple products, it is fashionable and elegant. Easy to use. The only issue is that it is more expensive than similar function products.

Works with all Apple Macs. You just plug it in. Fast quiet and unnoticed until you decide to use it.

It's slim and fast. Does not take up very much space. Very pleased with it.

As advertised, I found it compatible with my Mac and PCs without any issue. I opted for the Apple version (more expensive) for the aluminum casing and the USB 3.0 option. My main use was for loading Windows on my Mac via Bootcamp. I have travelled with it and found the case to be sturdy enough to handle fairly rough handling without issue. Although I don't see much use towards the future for optical drives, a solid version that works on all platforms is nice to have.

Apple’s external drive is is very easy to use and fits in my computer bag.

Not a lot to say. It works well. It works instantly. Ejects quickly. Records at an average speed.

Easy to set up, runs really well (no complaints as of right now) and is pretty quiet most of the time.

Excellent USB drive. Works on both Apple and Windows machines. I have used heavily and had no issues with it.
