    The disc drive worked as expected. Plugged it in and it was ready to go. I would have given it 5 stars except it is somewhat pricey. There are less costly non-Apple disc drives available. Due to concerns with compatibility, I payed a little more for this Apple drive.

    After trying DVD drives by their competitors I was pleasantly surprised by how easy this was to use. The epitome of plug and play. Apple gets it. And, that's why my next computer purchase will be from them.

    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.

    Super is the device works without a problem.I have had this drive for a month and have had no problems with it on my Mac Pro. The only thing I also agree with those who have expressed concern regarding the lack of a good old fashioned disk ejection mechanism.

    Love this SuperDrive. I bought a Mac, and need access to music CDs. Quick to hook up, ripped music from 10 CD's in 45 minutes. Will buy again if I need to.

    Being an Apple fan I decided to go with this when I needed an external drive. It's a plug and play device and works well with my MacBook Air. Non Apple devices may work as well at lower cost, but so far this has worked well.

    Apple iMac does not come with internal drive. Had to purchase this. Apple is getting cheap. IAc over 2000 with no internal cd. Drive is good works great and does not take up room.

    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).
