    Yes it not fun having to have a separate device to have to plug into the computer. It works great and is fairly small to store away.

    I wish all apple machines still had CD drives within them, but this is the perfect solution since we can't all have what we want!

    Not Bad For A Usb Powered Drive

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Not bad for the price. Nice design to accompany my MacBook Pro Retina. Being it's usb powered its not as powerful as a standalone external dvd burner. Also only compatible with Mac, but that's to be expected since it is manufactured by Apple.

    Matches up nicely with my Macbook

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    With most computers ditching the CD/DVD drive, I purchased this when I got my Macbook air. Extremely fast, both writing & reading, I could have gone cheaper but I didn't want the lag in speeds. Very happy & is worth the price

    My new Macbook Pro does not have a CD/DVD drive so I purchased the Superdrive - I am so happy I did! Works seamlessly.

    Best DVD Burner Ever!!!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I was shocked at how great this drive works after reading all of the negative reviews. This drive does a fantastic job of burning DVD's. I use Verbatim DVD's. This drive is a fantastic drive. Don't listen to the negative reviews.I read so many negative reviews that I almost didn't purchase this unit. I'm very happy with my SuperDrive

    Apple DVD player works!

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Like most Apple products this DVD player works just great. I even enjoy opening the Apple packaging. I should have bought this Apple DVD originally because I bought a less expensive brand and it failed within 6 months.

    Needed CD burner for mac

    Great build quality

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    There are not many external CD burners for Mac that I have found. The Apple Super Drive is usb 2.0 not 3.0. The read/write for CDs max out at 24x, 8x for DVDs. One cool thing is the eject key on a mac keyboard ejects the CD like it used to do on an internal drive (which is no longer in the newer macs). It doesn't open a tray for the CD, but rather "grabs" it like in a laptop or car.
