Customer Ratings & Reviews

Works perfectly, but the accompanying documentation was typically inadequate, so I had to proceed by trial and error. It took all of ten minutes.

I bought this for the few instances when we still need physical media on the new MacBook Pros with Retina Display. The build quality seems solid and it worked without issues on three different MacBooks of varying ages.

Great product from Apple for my Mac Mini. Although, I regret that I have to purchase a Superdrive rather than having it included in the computer, but that's for another review. Buy this if you want it to match and perform like the rest of your Apple products.

This drive is extremely useful for every macbook owners without a cd drive. It runs great and very helpful to read disks when needed to. I would highly recommend this to every macbook owners or even ultrabook owners. However, do read the manual carefully for operation.

Lacks an eject button, difficult to backtrack on a DVD, the cord is built in. It works well, but for this price I think it should have more features. Check out the reviews on the Apple site and you may want to go with a different external DVD drive.

I recently purchased a Apple MacBook Pro due to my old one not being able to have the software upgraded anymore. The new laptop of course does not have the DVD/CD drive. I'm very happy with this purchase of the reader. Works like a champ.

I didn't want to buy an external burner but my iMac broke and none of the new ones come with CD burners. I burn photos to cd on a regular basis. I am very happy with this purchase. It works fast and does the job well.

I had purchased the Apple Mac Book Air and wanted the option of the DVD drive. I purchased this and have had no issues with it whatsoever. It took me a couple of minutes to figure out how to eject a disc, but that is mainly because I am new to the Apple laptop as well.

I love it. Since my Macbook doesn't have a a disk drive this really come in handy. Everyone would tell you to get a cheaper brand. But you just spent at least 2K on a computer why would you want to put a watered down disk drive on the computer?? GET THIS DRIVE

My wife purchased a MacBook for her small business and was extremely disappointed when she learned that it did not have a DVD/CD drive. She gotten a lot of use from this external drive, which is very sleek and lightweight.

I purchased this drive three+ years after buying my laptop. Despite the age difference and the various OS upgrades I have made along the way, the drive connects to my laptop and works like a charm! I wish it was a bit cheaper as I don't use the drive often but such is life.

Sure beats noisy ones or drives that overheated my previous computers. Works perfect with my new iMac and looks good too. I like that it’s separate, love it actually since I rarely use a drive anymore. Reads and writes without problems.

The MacBookAir is a fabulous machine, but the lack of an input for CDs and CD Roms is a pain, especially if you want to input music into itunes, so this drive is really useful. It's superslim and has the same colourscheme and styling as the MacBook too. Recommended.

While we tend to do everything digitally, on occasion we need to utilize a dvd/cd. The SuperDrive pairs perfectly with our Retina iMac and MacBook Pro. Looks amazing and operates quickly and quietly.

This new Superdrive is great. My wife just got her MacBook Pro and was wanting to download some music from some of her CD's. Since the MacBook Pro doesn't have a CD drive, this was the answer to her prayers other than going to iTunes and buying them.

As you know macs don't have a cd drive because it takes up space and makes the computers heavier so in order to add cd to the computer you need this and it works!

I occasionally need a cd or DVD player and my MacBook Air doesn’t have the drive. This add on allows me to store it in my desk and attach it to my MacBook when I need to use it. I got it on sale and have been very happy with my purchase.

Works great. all you have to do is plug the super drive into one of your USB ports. The super drive does all the work, no need for programs or have to download any apps to use. It's plug and play, simple as that.

I was worried I would not like this, since my dvd drive was built in on my last computer, but it has been ok. It's easy to use, and I like that fact that my computer weighs a lot less. I don't use it that much, as I use a flash drive more than I do a dvd drive.

I needed a drive to load my CDs on my computer. I looked at few that were less expensive. I was very happy with the apple product again, so easy to hook up,sets it self up,and ready to use in 5 minutes . Click and drag your CDs into iTunes . Very easy user friendly.
