    Outstanding External CD Drive

    Now that few laptop brands have CD drives, there are still times when one is necessary. The Apple SuperDrive is by far the best both technically and in size, extremely thin, and the same square size as a Mac Mini. Carrying this accessory takes up virtually no space in any bag one uses. I’ve purchased several for my associates, making us all prepared for anything we may need in the area of media technology.

    The Apple - SuperDrive 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD RW/CD-RW Drive is very handy and worth the premium price as with all Apple products soley because of the ease of use and user friendly software...USB cable is simply plug and go which is nice compared to the cumbersome bs required with any other branded burner...not to mention the support for double-layer media disks which are handy for large GB storage such as HD video or backups...highly recommend...

    We initially purchased the Mac external hard drive in order to allow us to access files stored on cd's. This was necessary since some of the cd's were corrupt and we did not want them to freeze up our Mac minis while working on them. The Mac external hard drive was a perfect choice for the purposes of what we intended and it takes up so little space you can place it anywhere.

    Bought this to compliment my MacBook Pro Retina as I travel with it more than my older 15" MacBook Pro Non-Retina. This drive works perfectly, and as intended. The only caveat is that it does not work with Non-Retina and Non-Air MacBooks. It's made solely for MacBooks that doe not include an optical drive. If you own a MacBook Air, or Retina Pro buy it. If not, skip it.
