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 wish I would have bought this sooner. I watch DVD’s with my desktop computer. It is very easy to use. It loads the movie easily, and is not complicated at all. I love to pull out my old movies and watch them.

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.

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.

I opted to purchase a cheaper non-Apple brand drive just because of the price difference, but after reading the reviews, I got this drive. I read the negative reviews about ejecting the disk and don't understand what the problem is. Just click and eject!! No problems and love that it's so slim and discreet in size.

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.

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.

Bought this because the SuperDrive in my iMac went out. It just kept spitting the discs back out, without reading it. Figured that Apple should work with Apple. Come to find out, it doesn't work. Had to search online and enter a piece of code in terminal. Reboot, and it works like a champ. Hopefully it lasts longer than the one in my iMac. It does what it's supposed to, but I rated it 4 out of 5 because of the extra step, that I had to look up, to get it to work.

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.
