      Attractive choice due to the different capabilities and PnP architecture. Simply plug in the JCD382 to the side of the Mac, watch the blue LED illuminate and enjoy!

    This product was way to much money. I was afraid it would break off into my new MacBook Pro. It was an extra unexpected expense.

      Fearing the worst such as a new device breaking when inserting can be the worst. The JCD382's PnP architecture requires a full insertion with no space in between the mini dock and the mac, once you see the blue LED light illuminate, you can rest assured you are ready to go.

      Gratefuljer, I regret to hear about your disappointment with the Apple Superdrive not working. The mini dock is intended for smaller peripherals such as mice, keyboards, flash drives, web cameras.

    Since Mac laptops lack ports to connect several peripheral devices, this is great. Down side is it doesn’t allow the computer to charge while in use.

      Hello and thank you for reviewing the JCD382; we are glad to hear it is working to your expectations and sorry the price was not satisfying. Because of the mini dock's capabilities the price may be slightly higher than others on the market. We do have other devices available that may better fit your budget and if interested, our contact information can be found on the casing and an agent would be happy to help find an alternative.
