The Apple superdrive is perfect and versatile w/a sleek design and simple to use.

My new iMac did not have a disc drive built in and since in my work on history I have numerous CD-roms with data on them I need an add-on. This is compact and works so easily.. It is a great piece of equipment.

I mainly use it to transfer CDs to ITunes although the transfer rate could be faster. Ejecting the CD is easy with the eject button on my keyboard. I haven't used it much yet but so far it works great with my 2013 IMac. The drive is very simple and easy to use.

Nice drive for the mac. It's fast and quiet. Don't like the fact that there's no eject button on it (I'm used to PCs) or the fact that It has to be connected to the mac as it needs a powered usb (was hoping it would just connect to my hub, but no, I have to sacrifice a usb on the computer for it). It also has a really short usb cord so it has to be right beside the computer. Other than those issues, it's nice.

If you have a MacBook Air (which has no optical drives) it is a perfect addition for when you want to install software from a disk, watch a video or record a DVD. Interface is simple and effective. Works like a charm and keeps the Air very light to work with . Since CDs and DVDs seem to be dying with the advent of "The Cloud" it is smart to keep the weight and bother of an optical player isolated from your computer.

it works really well especially is you have cds you would want to hear or even dvds

Fast enough , great design ...... absolutely necessary if you need to burn cd,dvd ecc.

Apple - SuperDrive 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive it is very good, you can use a DVD tom watch same movies or CD for example you can watch have picture, it is easy to use.

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.

Bought this for our new iMac and it works great. Wanted a drive that would work seamlessly with MAC. Have played some movies and burnt discs to save photos. Very quiet when in use compared to others I have used in the past.

Most MacBooks don't have a disc drive anymore, so this is a good accessory to have in case you need it in a pinch. Used it 2-3 times when I was given files on a disc and it saved me some trouble.

It's APPLE. What can I say? It works as expected. I bought this to use with my new IMAC 5K. Although most every app and anything else you need is subscription based or downloadable, every now and then, you will still need and external drive.

Why buy anything else? Apple products are built better. All you have to do is buy and plug in to your iMac. It works from there. No software needed. Awesome!

It works great, I haven't had any problems with it. I would just recommend for everybody to buy the USB Type C to A adapter in case you have the newer mac computers that have Type C input.

A must for today's MacBook Pro and very reliable. I don't need to burn CDs that often so I love having a sleek laptop but when I do, this light, friendly accessory does the trick. It doesn't need its own power source so it's extremely portable.

This external drive allows mac user to burn CDCs/DVDs, and install external software if purchased on the disk. You can also view movies by using this external drive. Since the computer doesn't come with this drive, this is a must purchase for MAC owners.

Bought this Sony sound bar to get better sound out of my TV, which just happens to be a Sony also. I figured this sound bar would be a good fit and it was. It even included the optical cable. However, we still have trouble understanding what is being said sometimes. We think it is the movie sound track-it only happens with movies. With the TV speakers, we would adjust the volume from 20 to 45 depending on the movie or channel. With this sound bar we only need a 4 or 5 level up or down adjustment. That being said, there is no visible or audible adjustment level, so you never know where the volume setting is at. But, I bought it on sale and it did improve the sound and the volume control is easier so we like it. It is also Blue tooth capable, so we paired it with Alexa and listen to music during the day. Again, a better speaker that Alexa's speaker. Of course you have to change the input from TV to Bluetooth, and back to TV. And you now have 2 remotes, Directv & the Sony sound bar. We don't mind these little inconveniences. We are older and remember no remotes, fine tuning and moving the rabbit ears to get better reception when you change the channel, and no blue tooth.

Easy to use. Priced right. Does not work with all formats of converted disks.

If you bought that shiny new MacBook or MacBook Pro, this is an accessory that you are definitely going to need at some point. It has a very nice build quality compared to the less expensive models and of course, it matches perfectly.

Work as it should, perfect for my older MacBook with Retina display as my MacBook doesn’t come with dvd drive and I use dvd quite often. So far so good and I can’t complain.
