Needed to transfer video of performances to DVD. Purchased. For the band to use. Works well as far as I know. What was great was the ease of purchase. Placed on line, then an email was sent when ready to pick up in store. All completed in about an hour.

It's just a DVD drive that matches my MacBook Pro. Nothing special, but nothing underwhelming either. I plugged it in and it automatically worked. I used it to obtain the digital copies from movie disks I own. It has the build quality I expect from Apple. I kinda wish they'd upgrade all their disk drives to Blu-Ray but it's not often a disk of any kind gets used in the house.

I need this to watch my DVD class lessons. It is easy to use partnered with my iMac. It is so neat and simple to use. It is apple packaging and the authenticity is so obvious. This is indeed recommendable!

Great accompaniment for the MacBook Air

The MacBook Air is perfect for someone who travels with it due to its function capabilities and light weight, though it does not have a DVD or CD player. The Super Drive 8x is the perfect accompaniment for that purpose, easy to use and runs well.

Being that the new MacBooks do not come with dvd drives I wasn’t sure if I would be okay with an external plus in.
It’s a great little plug and play and not at all inconvenient

THIS IS A NECESSARY PRODUCT IF YOU HAVE PURCHASED A RECENT MACBOOK WITHOUT A BUILT IN DVD. MOST SOFTWARE CAN BE DOWNLOADED, HOWEVER, FOR THE INSTANCE WHERE A DOWNLOAD IS UNAVAILABLE, HAVING THIS APPLE SUPERDRIVE WILL DO THE TRICK.

I love this product. Anything Apple is never disappointing. I recently purchased a new computer and lap top. Neither one has the ability to read a DVD. New design for all Macs. I love the fact Apple provides a reader. I do like the lightness of my lap top without DVD. Makes it easy to travel. This DVD reader is perfect for old files that were stored on DVDs.

I purchased this to replace an asus burner I had, that required two USB ports. This works well for those needing to read or burn physical media on MacBook Pros, airs, Mac minis, or iMacs without requiring multiple USB ports or powered hubs.

It works like they say it's supposed to. I use it to record music CD's onto my MacBook computer. Never had a lot of luck with external DVD/CD drives. My CD's always get stuck in them. But this one's working good.

Now that both desktops and laptops do not include disk players, the Apple Super Drive is a needed addition. It works great and does Apple's usual top-notch job. Recommended to any user who needs this capacity.

I purchased this CD drive to use with my new 27" iMAC desktop computer and am very happy with it. I've been utilizing it to import some of my favorite CDs into my music library and haven't had any problems with it whatsoever.
