    The optic drives were the first things to go out on my old IMac and MacBook Pro. The use of an external SuperDrive is perfect for a multi- apple owner. Love it so far!

    I needed an easy to use DVD add-on for my iMac and this turned out to be just the right unit. It was Plug-n-Play with no connection issues. It could have a slightly longer interface cable but it works for most applications.

    My Super Drive connected to my Mac very quickly. I needed a quick replacement to complete my music Library. It works great no problems connecting it to my computer, As to be excepted it's Apple.

    I love that this drive is easy to use; just plug it in, insert a cd and your mac does the rest. I gave it four stars because the usb cord it very short. Almost to short to allow the drive to rest in the empty space near the trackpad. Another small con, it doesn't come with an apple logo or an apple sticker... I said SMALL.

    This was a lifesaver, I needed it during tax season to correct a prior year return and the program was on a disc. I picked this up at best buy, plugged it in and I was back in business. Works great!

    Needed more storage for my wife’s Mac and my daughters Mac. Plus they wanted to be able to share files. An external drive seemed to be a good choice. It was easy to install and works great!

    Although we probably will not need to use this a lot, there are things we have stored on cd’s. It works great and is small so doesn’t take up much space which is also nice. Very happy with it.

    I bought this because my MacBook Air did not have a place to put CDs in, so I bought this. It only works for Apple devices with USB ports, though. No problems otherwise.

    As Isaid , an old fashioned gal, I find a lot of old cds to add to my golden oldies collection. Worked like a charm right out of the box. Would recommend to any and all apple owners

    A solid and must-have accessory for your Mac

    This accessory is a must have if you have a Mac. With more and more computers coming without CD/DVD ROM drives these days, it's surprising how often you need one to install software or use them for entertainment. The drive is light, compact, unobtrusive and easy to use. Definitely worth paying the extra money to get one.

    brought it home, connected it to my mac and away it went .it was very easy to hook up and get working. it was good for me because I'm not very computer literate so ease of set up was critical.

    This is just what i needed to install all my old files into my new iMAC. It did not come with a disk drive. It also plays my CD's and DVD's. Nothing to load for it to work. Just plug into USB and it starts working.

    I know it seems like a no brainer that you should buy a product and it does what it should, and I've come to expect that from Apple products, but this little disc player is easy to use, compact, and durable - It's great!

    Allowed me to add security software and a few packages I wanted to back up my work. It had to be simple as I am a beginner with Apple products so I had to tutor myself based on what I knew about Windows software.

    I read lots of reviews on all of the options available for IMacs & decided on this one. This computer is wonderful-- very fast & lots of storage. The extra cost for the fusion drive is definitely worth it!
