    For someone who has been alive 25 years I’ve seen the transformation of technology. CDs are barely used in today’s world. but with my macbook air being without a CD/DVD reader I felt this was a necessity not only for movies but also have pictures and music on CDs from my childhood. works perfect.

    Great accessory to the new MacBook Pro's. By having the SuperDrive external, chassis size and weight is reduced from the MacBook... The external SuperDrive is solidly built and easily carried in the laptop bag or backpack for those few times you need it. Affordably priced...

    This is simple, just plug in and watch your dvd, etc. The salesperson helped me choose this over a much cheapernon-brand because he said they keep up better with updates than non Apple vendors. Plus I am a Mac junkie, for 20+ years I have had no serious complaints that weren't due to my own errors and negligence in just a few instances.

    Old reliable product fir those of use who still use the CD/DVD media. It will no doubt still be usable long after the media will have gone to the graveyard long with floppy disks, ZIP disks and other electromechanically readable media

    My old laptop had a disk drive embedded in its hardware, unfortunately I broke that old computer and upgraded to the MacBook. I am a huge movie buff and had no way to watch my films, that was until invested in this disk drive. It's great and I haven't had any problems functioning it since it's so easy to use.

    Since Macs no longer include an internal DVD drive, this is great to have. It is sleek and compact and works plug and play.

    Granddaughter has a MacBook Pro without a DVD in it. Tried to use a universal DVD plug in but couldn't get it to work properly. Got this for her for Christmas and she plugged it in and all was great! Product is really great but sometimes find it annoying that "Apple" only works with "Apple" but sometimes it's well worth the price!

    Since my iMac did not come with a disc drive, I decided to get one so that I could play CD's and DVD's here in my home office while working. This device does everything it says it will and it is so easy to use. You just plug it into the USB port, slip the disc in and away it goes. I am really enjoying this item!

    I know others have complained about the price but I must say this product worked wonderfully with no set up or reading a confusing manual. Well worth it. I have a DVD player hooked up to my TV that I cannot figure out how to work and what a waste of money! You will not regret buying this product if you need a DVD drive for your Mac laptop.

    Sometimes you just can’t find the album you want to listen to online. Converting cds to mp3 is simple and the style still fits with Apple design quite well.

    Build and Quality are second to none with Apple products. I was looking for an external drive to go with my MacBook Pro. While I considered some alternative drives that were cheaper, I am glad I when with this one instead. It just feels like its built well and so far works perfect with all of my computers.

    For $70+, this is a bit of a crime on Apple's part. I was nervous about buying this because I had seen some reviews (from 2013 and earlier) say that there were problems with this device, and that it was the worst Apple-made product yet. It seems those kinks have been figured out and now it's a fine product. It's worked great for us.
