    Bought for my 2020 MacBook Pro. The quality, design and ease of use is very good so the premium price seems fair.

    For a secondary product that has to be hooked up it works well. I do wish this drive was just included in the hardware of a Mac

    I’m sure it is good. I returned it and I have an Apple computer and would need an android adapter. This would have made the price closer to an Apple driver and an additional piece of equipment.

    If you need to read a cd/dvd in any new Mac, this is an essential accessory. The Apple cd/dvd just works natively without any new software installed.

    I went ahead and bought this although everything is moving to the cloud. I still have DVD's and CD's that I need to access from time to time. This drive is fast and works great.

    Needed the superdrive because new iMac and other computers no longer come with internal DVD/CD rw drives. Inexpensive and a great drive. Fills the bill - just wish it was built in . . .

    I used this on my Macbook Air, original one (still working) and while I am not happy that Apple took the CDs out, this one does the job nicely.

    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.

    A must if you want to watch DVD’s since that feature is no longer available. Just plug it in the back of your computer and there you have it!

    My MacBook Air didn't have a built in SuperDrive 8x External USB Double-Layer Dvd±rw/CD-RW Drive and I wanted one to be able to burn CD's and be able to view CD's that I have.

    This is a must have item since the MacBook's don't have an internal drive. If you have any reason to copy, burn, or read a disc, this is a easy to use, must have, addition.

    I rarely use disks, but when I need to, or want to watch a nonstreaming movie on my laptop, this is a terrific way to accomplish those goals without making my MacBook Air bulky 24/7.
