Customers are saying

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.

    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.

    There isn't much to say about the superdrive. It's a super fast, durably made, high quality external disc drive so that you can use disc based software or CDs and DVDs with your new sleek, thin Macbook. It works flawlessly. If you need a disc drive, just save yourself the trouble and hassle of searching for alternatives and buy this one.

    When I purchased my iMac at Best Buy, I knew I would need to add an external dvd/cd drive. While I know this technology appears to be on the way out like cassette tapes, I have a collection of disks that I want to be able to access. Obviously, this drive is the answer for me.

    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.

    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.

    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.
