Apple Being Apple
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Apple should include an external drive with purchase of MacBook Pro but they do not. Then, when you buy their SuperDrive, they don't include a USB-c to USB adapter so you can use it with a MacBook Pro! Pretty lame. Best Buy staff did not realize this either necessitating a second trip to the store to get one.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Usb

Not compatible with M1 MacBook Pro
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Apple should be ashamed of themselves! I called Apple customer service and they were very attentive, unfortunately this CD DVD player is not compatible with the M1 MacBook Pro, and that’s what Apple told me. Why would Apple sell a product that is not compatible with all of their computers?

no USB-C
