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.

    If you own an IMac, then this is the external drive that you want. BB salesman sent us home with LG equivalent, but it would not work with the IMac. Plug and play from there, and you will not believe the speed of this thing!

    This was purchased for my daughter in college to use on her apple Mac book pro for extra offline storage of items she will not use on regular basis. We also purchased some dvd classes and needed it to work with her mac book. This works well and I will be purchasing one for her sister to use with her mac book also.

    Before I bought this, I had purchased a generic dvd drive that was supposed to work with my mac, well it didn't work. This one was more money, but works perfectly.

    The Apple Super drive 8x is super User Friendly! Plug in to your MAC Book, put in a CD or DVD and it loads and is ready to play. This is my second one and I love it, would buy again.

    I love all my Apple products and needed this DVD/CD player to hook up to my Mac. Now I can transfer my CD's to my MP3 player and not have a bunch of CD's in my car.

    As I indicated above I do think there should be an eject button on it, but I have had no problem whatsoever with ejecting it from the MacBook. It seems to work great no issues at all whatsoever and it's exactly what I needed!

    The SuperDrive is really a required component. I can not fathom not being able to listen to music CDs or watch video DVDs on an new piece of technology. It definitely does the job. Light and sturdy. I definitely recommend it.

    This Apple label drive is compatible with all Macintosh computers that are fitted with USB 2.0/3.0 connectors. The drive is durable and powered by the USB connection. I have personally used the drive with current iMacs, MacPros and MacBook Pro laptops. (It likely will be the last DVD drive that Apple offers for sale).

    Apple products are very dependable. I bought this to replace a cheap CD reader that quit working suddenly. If I had bought this first I would have saved myself money, time and a lot headache.

    I bought this for my macbook air. I don't use a lot of cd's or dvd's so this is a great choice because I can use it on the few times I want to or need to download something. It's small light and easy to use. Just plug an play.

    This device is exactly what I needed for my Mac. A bit pricy but it does everything required. You can not go wrong with an Apple product. I also have an LG drive I use for Bluray and it is both Mac and PC compatible.

    I love my Mac. I love the DVD player that now goes with it. I thought it would be weird having it "separate" from the laptop, but I actually kind of like it that way.

    I tried another brand for disc burning with my Mac. This one works so much better. It has never failed me and I do a lot of burning. Small and compact, it fits in nicely with the limited real estate on my work desk.
