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 add-on was just what I needed to play some CD's and be able to write CD's. If it would play Blu-Ray discs, I would have given it 5 stars.

    It does the job of reading and playing both CD's and DVD's and MP3's But Again WISH MAC would have left the disk drive for DVD and MP3 on the MAC Pro itself. Without them it is very inconvenient to have to A) spend more money, B) keep track of little add on's, C) Keeping everything plugged in and stable to be able to use, that is now hanging by wires off of the MAC. Very inefficient and awkward. Would only recommend if you are unable to get MAC without disk drive.

    I don’t have many complaints with this product, however, need to upgrade to USB-C and need to add BluRay/4K HD disc capability.

    This external DVD/CD drive is another reliable Apple product. It has a sturdy outter case, not a cheap plastic housing to protect the main optical parts.
