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.

    Many people don't use cd's anymore. But when you do, you'll need this cd drive from Apple. It's a great product.

    Since recent Macs do not have an optical drive, this external drive is a necessary accessory. It "just works".

    Like most Apple products the usb drive works well. It also compliments my other apple products nicely on my desk. Although you can buy basically the same thing for half the price from a different manufacturer.
