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.

    This USB drive is too expensive. It is not simple to use and it will not always release the inserted disc. It is a huge problem when the disc gets stuck as there is no reject button.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend

  • External disc drive works well.

    I bought this for my MacBook Pro as it doesn't have a built in one. It works great. You do, however, need a USB-C to USB adapter to connect to the computer or you won't get power.
