    The drive for me was a necessary accessory for business and recreational purposes, and performs just as exceptional as you'd expect this product to do. I'm able to be more productive while taking full advantage of the potential of my Apple device.

    The newer iMacs don't come with an internal CD drive, so I was glad that Best Buy had one for a lot less than I was anticipating. It hooked right up, I popped in a CD, and iTunes asked me if I wanted to copy it.

    This drive works perfectly with my Macbook Pro Retina, and does both reads and burns as needed. I've backed up and digitized my music and movie library with it, and it's more than paid for itself. Frustrating that my laptop does not come native with this functionality, but savings of power and weight are appreciated.

    I have one of the MAC BookPros without DVD and this product is just needed from time to time. Had an older one which bit the dust after 5 years of usage thus I expect similar if not more time as DVDs are used less. Flawless usage experience and highly recommended.

    We got this to pair with a new iMac, which no longer comes with an integrated optical drive. We like the build quality, as well as its small footprint and stylish design. It can sit out next to the computer without making itself an eyesore, which isn't often the case with peripherals.

    Glad to buy this to be honest although I think it is no longer necessary I still need and want it! I have a lot of CDS. :-D The only thing is that the cord (usb/wire) is built in. Afraid of getting the usb material tear. Once the wire breaks it's useless forever. I Wonder, will that ever get fixed though?

    I recently needed to load data to my MacAir from a disc so I picked up an Apple SuperDrive from Best Buy, plugged it in and with no setup it worked perfectly. I have several computers and switch between platforms with Apple and Microsoft operating systems. Apple hardware still wins for simplicity and ease of use.

    We use a cd rom to produce copies of songs for our children's choir at church. We also use the cd to watch some movies as well as listen to music. It is a great help and works flawlessly. I am new to the Apple products but have had little problem working my way through the learning curve.

    I was on the fence about purchasing this with so many negative reviews. But I wanted to stick with an Apple product to go with my new MacBook. No regrets here, everything works great, no problems at all.

    The drive works great and is plug and play . it copies beautifully . Ecstatically it matches the other apple products. It has fast play back and burning ability. It is slim ,but packs a lot of power. Love it !!! If you have a apple it is best to purchase the products made for it , it is a lot easier.
