    The new iMac does not have a disc drive and I have many old photo dics and music cd's I wanted on my computer. This drive is plug and play. Works seamlessly with my new computer.

    It made my life easy using my iMac. The good thing about external drives is that they can be replaced anytime needed without messing up your computer or waiting days to have it fixed.

    The MacBook Air does not come with an internal optical drive. This unit fills the bill. Easy to set up, jut connect the USB cable and you're ready to go. Handles CD's and DVD's but not Blu-Ray. Also works on both the Mac and Windows operating systems.

    I'm a little old school, so I still like burning CDs, and DVDs of stuff I put together and as backups of old photos. This works great and doesn't create any stress on my MacBook

    Apple drive obviously integrates well with Apple products. Primary reason I purchased the Apple drive despite higher cost versus peer group at lower price point. Easy device to set up and works well.

    I started to go a cheaper route when buying this product. The problem I've found is Apple just can't be compared to anything else! It's great, and I plan to get years of use out of it.

    Works as expected. Could have went with a less expensive choice, but wanted Apple to match new computer: Definitely works well and looks sharp.

    I was surprised that the Mac book Pro with Retina display did not have a CD/DVD drive built in. But this inexpensive add on with the USB connector has been great. Works very well with the laptop.

    I needed a disk drive and the Macs do not include them in their hardware now, so I had to buy an external one. It works very well, though. It is a shame they removed it from their laptops.
