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.

    My old MacBook Pro had a USB port and a CD-ROM built in. The new MacBook Pro requires these things to be added. So far the SuperDrivevworks great with a USB adapter.

    Yes your new $2000 Mac laptop doesn’t have a dvd drive. You’ll need this and the additional adapter cord so you can use it. Irritating the cord doesn’t come with this
