It performed the tasks required perfectly. It is simple to use and makes a nice addition to our Mac Pro. The people at Best Buy were very helpful in helping us pick out this drive which works great with our system.

I've not had a problem yet with this drive. It does what it's supposed to, though the only thing I would change is adding a manual eject button. But hey, as long as the drive never fails I should never have to take it apart to retrieve a CD or DVD, right?

I'm so glad they finally removed the cd drive from the Apple computers. The instructions for use were stop on, plug in... And use. I didn't have to do anything besides that. Great product and easy to use. Very fast at burning large amounts of pictures on disc.

Being that my iMac does not have a superdrive, this is a must have. Although most of everything is digital now, every now and then you will find the need to have a disk drive.

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 was dismayed when I saw that I had to purchase this in addition to my new iMac since it no longer comes with one. The price was reasonable so I purchased it at the same time. It was so easy to install! Just plug the USB into the back of the iMac and it works perfectly!

This product was perfect for my need of an external disk drive. At first it was a little confusing because there are no buttons on the disk drive, so you have to do it through the computer to eject stuff, but overall it is a great product and am extremely happy with it!

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.

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 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.

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

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.

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.
