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.

    I was not aware that you would need a power supplying usb converter to use this, I’ve always had good luck with plug and play but this one plugged and didn’t play. Got a power supplying usb and it works great.

    I still have a lot of CD that I need to use with my computer. The new computers do not offer a CD/DVD drive. Therefore, this product provided me with the needed connection!

    The idea of this unit is phenomenal; however, with my MacBook Air 2020 model not having any optical drives and only two thunder ports and the reality of discs becoming obsolete, you will spring for this unit but never use it. Unfortunately its price point is pretty high for a component that will just accumulate dust. It's Apple made, so it'll make sense for you to buy, just because. Used it to test it out when I first purchased and haven't used it since. I guess I'm ready though if out of nostalgia someone needs me to burn them a mixed CD....

    Works as expected. It’s a nice option to keep the Laptop from being so bulky, since it not needed all the time.

    This was way easier than I thought it would be to set up and use since I am used to the already installed drive but it was so simple and in seconds I was listening to cd's and watching dvd's.

    My granddaughter needed this to go along with an entry level APPLE AIR for school projects. She has used the drive several times for summer school-club projects and has no complaints.

    This is my second purchase for this! Bought it for myself and my brother always asked to borrow so I bought him one also! Works perfectly for Macs that don't have a disk port

    I initially bought an LG drive, but returned it for this one when this model went on sale. This drive just worked better than the LG.

    Right out of the box after the installation was burning music and watching DVD's. Love that this an external unit that I can just unplug and put away if I don't want my desk cluttered.

    This drive is easy to use. Plug and play. Removing the drive from a laptop makes the laptop much lighter, but sometimes I want to use the drive. I just plug and play!

    Very Sleek and sturdy. Works out the box as expected. Perfect for trips or flights when you need to play a DVD. Also great from CD/DVD rips/transfers for archiving.

    I got this drive because Apple killed the DVD in my new iMac. I use it sparingly to purn DVDs for work and to copy files off DVDs. It works great and I've had no problems

    With our iMac, this was necessary due to transfer of music from our PC to now the iMac. Works well and stores easily under computer screen.

    If you own a Mac computer system, this external disc drive is a must have. It’s very easy to install (plug in and play). The quality is what you’d expect from Apple.

    It is an Apple Super Drive. It works as expected. My son has burned quite a few CDs and a couple of DVDs with it and had no problems. But then again, I didn't expect any problems.
