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.

    I tried the Pioneer Blu-Ray and LG Blu-Ray drives currently sold at Best Buy. They were both underwhelming. However, this SuperDrive with the Insignia USB-A to USB-C adapter worked immediately on my MacBook Pro with touchbar. I was able to watch DVDs and burn CDs without any problems or any additional software.

    I do miss laptops that have the dvd/cd drive included. Besides that, it works as you would expect it to. The only issue is that the apple laptops never have enough ports on them!

    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.

    The external DVD/Disc drive for the MacBook is great as it provides the perfect companion for laptops that have no disc spot, so you can view photos, or do other projects. Plus, its an Apple product so it meshes perfectly and you know it's quality

    This is just a standard read-write external drive that you need for burning files or reading, playing CDs or DVDs, etc. It works like it should. There is no tray that slides in and out to load or remove disks. I have not tried it with any disks that have paper labels that can cause hang ups if they are curled on the edges.

    We had just bought an Apple computer and my wife suggested we get a USB drive for it. The salesman recommended this drive for our new lap top. It is very easy to connect to the computer and works really well. You can thank the Best Buy salesman for this sale.

    I still use many cds and dvds with my computer so an external drive was a must. The casing matches my macbook pro hence the elegant and clean statement. For my money, Apple just makes good products and as there's no Apple Store where I live, the local Best Buy Apple department is great and the tech people know the product.

    Apple MacBook pro did not come with an internal DVR drive, so I was happy to purchase the super hard drive, and play all my DVD's, and download applications. Thank you for the technical information provided by the store's employees.

    I like the fact apple stopped implementing drives to their laptop lines, because not only it gives room more battery, or memory, but makes the computer lighter. This Drive works extremely well and its sturdy and you can tell it has been made well. Do not get any other drive if your working with an Apple computer. Chose this one!
