Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

The SuperDrive is great - my new Retina MacBook Pro doesn't have a CD drive so I bought this to read and burn CDs and DVDs. It works exactly like it should and I couldn't be more pleased!

Works good and is quiet, would recommend this to anyone

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!

Works seamlessly with my Mac Book Pro. It appears more sturdy than the Dell as this one takes the CD/DVD into the player rather than sending a tray out to receive the tray as Dell does. Great product. (Wish Apple still built this into their laptops)

The DVD drive is need for writing CD's & DVD's. Easier way to install software. It works great, easy to install and use. For the price of the laptop my expectation would be to have one arleady built in like the competive brands for less money and upgraded processor.

This superdrive is slim, and fast, very pleased with it.

I bought a new iMac ,when I hooked it up I found no drive ,so I looked them up on bestbuy.com ,and liked this one the best,when I went to the store to pick it up the sales person told me just plug it in and follow directions ,it was that simple,it took 2 mins to hook up and use.works great no issues yet.

We recently bought the new Mac laptop which doesn't have a built in disk drive. This was the next option, it's compact and easy to use.

I purchased this because I still have a lot of CDs and software discs. I usually purchase music digitally now but I still find CDs that I never uploaded or will get a CD from a family member who no longer listens it. The drive works exactly as I need it to. No complaints at all. Perfect addition to my new Macbook Pro.

Easy to use, great to convert old software and CDs.

Very compact and fast for the money. Sleek looking also.

This item is plug and play. It works as advertised. If you are planning to use it with newer Apple products, invest in an adapter.

Since Apple discontinued the built in drive on their products, I thought I would not like the external drive. I think it will work out because if it ever goes bad, I won't be without my iMac and mac book while waiting to get it repaired. I can easily use it with my iMac and mac book with no problems.....just plug and play!

I have only used it a couple of times, but is as easy as put in and click play. It is a hassle to carry along, but sacrifices for a lighter and slimmer macbook make up for it. If you use laptop on a table, then it works fine, but the cord is not long enough to utilize MacBook Air on your lap or laptop table. It just want to hang.

Good design, compact, attractive. Works out just fine.

It hooks up easily and there is no software to download or upload you just plug and play. The only drawback I can think of is it won't play blue ray. Don't know why Apple still has a problem with that but I bought another drive first that would play blue ray and it locked up the first time I tried to play one so...

It has performed well, and as expected, I use it on a new iMac, and once it's plugged into the USB it is good to go. I have not burned anything as of yet, but my primary use is as an external disc drive, or ripping audio and video discs into my library. The only downside I would mention is the fact that it takes up a USB port on my iMac, and those are limited to begin with. While the sleek design is stylish on the new iMacs, leaving some width to have a built in drive is preferable for me.

So I got this drive because I got a MacBook without one and there was software that I required onto my laptop that only came in disk form. Just plug into the laptop and it's good to go and it's fast when importing music cd's so overall good product 5 stars

Great product easy to set up great price fast drive
