I'll admit, I don't use this too terribly often, but it's a nice little accessory to have. That way, you don't have to rely on using a large TV. Love the portability of this, only downside is is that it doesn't work with Blu-Ray.

Use this drive all the time with my Mac computer. I like the fact that I can use the Qapple keyboard to eject CDs. Works great with Apple.

Needed the drive for a work related DVD that I received. Bought it, removed from the box, plugged it in and it worked immediately. No fighting with drivers or software. That's what's great about Apple stuff. Always works.

It's nice that these exist for those who can't let go of CDs. I like that I don't have to tote it around, as I primarily do my CD burning at home. But it's so portable and compact that if I needed to take it with me, it wouldn't be a nuisance.

Love this product. I use it at least once a week. If you want the flexibility to watch/record DVDs on the latest 2016 MacBook Pro, then this is the product to buy.

I have a lot of Cds an d Dvd's so will have a lot of use for this unit So far it has worked flawlessly and the only objection would be that it would have an eject ability built into the product.

This is another great Apple product, easy to set-up, plug and play.
Got a great sale price and used my reward points.

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.

Easy plug 'n play straight out of the box. I was able to spin music/movie discs with ease. I paid extra to have MS Office for Mac discs. The super drive installed Office without a problem! Great solution, portable and it looks great too!

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.

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.

Works like any other DVD/CD reader/burner. I had to get an Apple USB cable though to connect it to the USB C port. The drive didn’t work with a Hyperdrive 9 port USB-C Hub.

It's just like the built-in super drive I've had in all my prior macbooks. While I have no empirical data, it seems to be as fast and responsive as a built-in. That is to say, I didn't notice any significant slow down running over USB.

Got this for my daughter who was leaving for college and has a Mac Air. I knew she would want to watch some of her DVD's so I purchased this drive for her. She has enjoyed having it so she can watch DVD's since her WiFi isn't the greatest.

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.

I love my MacBook Air but I hated not having access to a disk drive. I was very excited to bring this home and finally unload many items to my computer. Easy to use, performs good. I have no complaints!
