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.

    Great CD burner and for playing DVDs. Had some difficulty with getting it to eject the first time I used it but no problems after that!

    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.

    Backup memories are utilitarian devices; the one think required above all is reliability. This device has it totally. A good buy.

    No major complaints but for the price I expected it to be faster and also it has had trouble ejecting a disc on a couple of occasions after the computer had gone to sleep. Not sure if this is just a coincidence or if it will be ongoing.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
