Customers are saying

Customers are positive about the SuperDrive 8x External USB Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Drive's ease of use, USB connectivity, and compact size. Many appreciate its compatibility with various systems and its performance in burning and reading discs. However, some customers find the price to be a bit high. A minor drawback mentioned is the lack of a physical eject button and a short power cord.

    The Apple USB Super Drive is a perfect match to my new Apple system. It has less moving parts than most DVD writers and is much easier to use. The Super Drive does it all for you.....

    I would repurchase this product again, I'm annoyed that I have to carry it. But, I'm glad that is not built in. The light versatility of the laptop is great, I've only used it twice.

    I have no complaints about this hardware. All you have to do is plug it into your computer and your ready to go. I love the fact that Macs are super slim now, but I wish that I didn't have to buy the external CD/DVD player separately.

    This product is truly a plug and play item. The iMac recognized the item and automatically allowed for the device to accept discs and activate them based on being data, music, or dvd without any additional actions on my part.

    It's a typical Apple product, almost trivial to set up and run!I used it right out of the box to load Turbotax. Everything ran smoothly and now I'm ready for tax season.

    Works great - downloaded my cds to iTunes in no time. Would highly recommend. Just remember you need a USB to USB-C adapter to use on your Macbook.

    Bought for wife’s new MacBook Air with M1 chip. It does the job with a slim design. Have not yet burned a dvd. When my old burner dies I will replace it with this.

    I wanted an alternate music system and still had hundreds of CD’s I enjoyed. The Apple Super external drive allowed me to import my entire CD collection into my library very quickly with ease of use.

    There's no eject button. When I got a disk stuck in there I had to use a paper clip to hold my forms together instead of my regular double-sided tape with the polka-dots. Apple usually makes good quality stuff so go for it.

    Since the APPLE computer does not have a tower you have no way to back up important files. I also needed it to download my security for viral protection. Easy to use and very inexpensive in price to complement my APPLE computer.

    My laptop (macbook pro 15inch display) does not come with a disk (cd,dvd drive) so I purchased the apple superdrive. It is so easy to use and it makes it easy to transfer my music cd's onto my computer. I highly recommend this product.

    I bought this product for the times when I might need to install software from a CD or DVD, or when I might want to add songs to iTunes from an audio CD, or burn a CD or DVD. Very easy to install - just plug it in to a USB port and it works!

    I found myself in a jam while on a deadline and needed a CD/DVD drive so I could install new software. It's great to have Apple hardware available locally when I need it. Plugged it in and of course it works perfectly.

    We are not to the point of all flash or online media ye, so unfortunately you still need a DVD drive. It would be nice if they would just include the external drive since your paying almost $3000 for a laptop, but not bad for an extra $80.
