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.

    Works just as I’d expect from an Apple product. Since laptops rarely come with any disc drives anymore it was a great addition. Since I had disc with pics on them I needed to transfer to a USB drive.

    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.

    When I went to a MacBook I was sad that the cd drives were no longer built in, I wanted a drive because I do buy CD's still and make CD's. I was faced with the option of going to an Apple brand or other brand. I decided to go with Apple and I've never had any issues with it and I've had it well over a year. It plays dvds without error. I don't know how else I could brag about this product. It's durable and well worth the money!

    Only one issue with this drive and that is that is doesn't have an external eject button. We had an older CD get stuck and had to research and work at getting it out using commands. An external ejection button would make it much easier. Still a great product - just will be aware of putting in old CD/DVDs.

    I purchased one of these when I was traveling and it turns out to be a great little addition to my MacBook when I am traveling. It is one of those things that you have to think about before taking with you but it works great. The only downside is that it would be nice if it worked with my Windows PC but that is a fairly minor complaint. Other than that, love it.
