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. A minor drawback mentioned is the lack of a physical eject button and a short power cord.

    Works great. Would recommend for this PC. The only downside was a little more expensive.

    I bought this and used a delivery service to bring it to me, my delivery driver stole it. Anyways, Best Buy sent me another one and this one did not get stolen hallelujah. Worked very well. Getting the disk out was literally a hassle, this is more than likely a user error not the product . Other than that, great purchase. And a real journey.

    APPLE USB SUPERDRIVE

    I have an iMac but it didn't come with a CD-ROM drive. When I bought TURBOTAX, I found out I needed a CD-ROM drive to activate the program (yes, I know I could just go to the TURBOTAX website and do my taxes there...but I have security concerns). Instead, I bought the APPLE USB Super Drive. It does exactly what I want it to do. It plays DVDs, also. Highly recommended!

    Super Drive

    This USB Super Drive offers the luxury of having the capacity to watch or burn a DVD or CD. I was disappointed in the MacBook Pro's lack of this device integrated within; but now, because I just would not have used that feature frequently anyway, find the Super Drive to be useful only when I need it. And the fact that I don't always lug it around means that my MacBook Pro is lighter.

    Wanted a quality drive for my MAC so I ordered this. First drive I got I had to use a screw drive to push the disc to stay in the drive. Ordered a second and it works fine. First one was either defective or got to knocked around when shipped in the envelop B.B. sent it in. I would not be reluctant to order this again.

    Now required to upload anything into an IMac.

    I bought this peripheral for my new IMac desktop because it is now required. Older IMac's had a slot in the side of the computer for CD's and DVD's, which was a really nice feature. The newer computers from Apple don't have a slot, thus the necessity for the external hard drive. That being said, this product is excellent and serves my needs exactly. It is what I have come to expect from Apple, and it delivers.

    Bought a Memorex brand and could not get it to work on my Mac computer. Took it back and got the one made for my Mac. It was so easy to use. Just plug in and play without having to download any other programs. Only downside is that it seems to be slow taking in the DVD. I would recommend it to anyone with a Mac.

    I bought this as a holiday present for my husband. He received it yesterday, and has not yet hooked it up. However, our kid, who worked for several years at the Apple Store, says it's a good item, so I'm willing to (provisionally) give it an acceptable rating. I may improve that rating, or downgrade it, depending upon further developments. Since my husband is a self-acknowledged Luddite (i.e. not at all computer savvy) his opinion may vary, once he's tried it out.
