Customer Ratings & Reviews

This DVD/CD is very easy to plug in and play. It allows me to see all of my pictures that I had previously stored on CD's. I didn't notice that my new desktop did not have a built in DVD/CD drive. Thankful that this device is available.

It is a Super Drive! A very expensive super drive, the reason for the four stars. Yes, I could have gotten something cheaper that would have worked just as well, but my luck over the years with drives like this has not been good. Spend the money on the Apple, it works and works and works. When they first came out I bought one of these, years ago, the kids still have it and it is still going strong.

I love the CD/DVD drive- it is very easy to use - you don't have to be computer literate to use it, and it just as good as having a built in one in your computer, but the best part is, you only have to take it when you need it, so it doesn't make you computer heavy all the time. Great product and good price.

I can't imagine being without a cd/dvd drive with any computer. Personally, I think Apple should include the drive as a standard feature with the iMac. Heavens knows it was considerably more costly than most Window products that come with a cd/dvd drive. It is a great addition to my 27 inch iMac.

Sometimes you just need a CD/DVDRW drive. This one fit the bill. The iMac doesn't come with a drive and sometimes you just need one. The install was seamless, just plug and play. Definitely a great addition to your existing system.

I bought Apple SuperDrive 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD RW/CD-RW Drive and its totally perfect and easy to use. This prodduct is stick on the table not like other brand is very light, it move when take the cd or dvd out from the dvd/dc drive and it doenst look cheap. 100 percent recommended!

I needed a CD drive for my job. It took me a month to purchase this Apple SuperDrive, since I lost my rewards points when I first ordered. Now that I have the Drive, I am so happy to be able to play and record with my MacBook Pro. As with any Apple product, the SuperDrive works easily and flawlessly.

Macbook pros no longer come with built in DVD drives, and that is good. But sometimes you need one! This external drive is just what you need. It rips and burns DVDs and CDs just like an internal DVD drive, and it makes your MacBook laptop much much lighter since it is not internal!

I am unsure whether I agree with Apple's policy of not providing a drive with MacBook Pro, adding further cost to one's purchase. However, the USB powered drive is fine. Even though more costly than generic drives available, we chose to buy the Apple product in case of compatibility issues.

We had to get this when we upgraded our computer to a Mac,the only problem with macs is there is nowhere to burn a disc or cd so if this is something you like to do on a computer than this is your only option but it works great and it literally took about a minute to hook it up one cable and boom your done

I know CDs and DVDs are going to the wayside eventually, but you never know when you'll need this baby. For $79, it's a nice piece of equipment to have. Simple connection via USB on the back of my IMac. Thanks to Cuyahoga Falls BestBuy for the suggestion :)

Real small and sleek! Easy to connect to my main computer!!!

Needed a way to upload music (from CDs) to ITunes as my MacBook does not have a port. Didn't need to read instructions. Just plugged into the USB port , popped in a CD and ITunes automatically opened and imported the CD.

I purchased this DVD player because I needed a way to play them on my MacBook Pro. I am so happy that I bought this because now I can use my Rosetta Stone Spanish Disc and other workout DVD's. This was a life saver, thanks Best Buy!!!!

I purchased the Apple Superdrive 8x External USB Double-layer Dvd±rw/cd-rw drive for my daughter's Mac Pro 13 which she uses for college. She has had no issues, but has only used it a couple times since Christmas 2016.

I was happy to find a reliable Apple replace for optical drive for my 2012 iMac—and I got it for less than the list price as an open box product at Best Buy. I have had for about six weeks, and it works just fine and completely silently!

Plugged it in, It just worked. Pure Apple. 1st DVD went right in with a nice smooth sharp high-quality action, and I was able to play (and import the content with another program), no problem. It's just like the older internal drives. I haven't tried writing anything yet.

Since the iMac doesn't have a drive you will need this for CD's and DVD's. It works great and its easy do use.

I purchased this to go with my iMac computer and it works seamlessly smooth and makes everything much simpler. I use it mostly for business uploading software and while on trips to watch movies Works just like any other PC DVD player.

Purchased this external DVD / CD reader writer to replace my MacBook laptop and old iMac, both of which had built in readers/drives. My new iMac does not have it built in and the external drive works just fine for my needs. Now I can get rid of extra machines that I do not need anymore.
