USB-C Superdrive External DVD/CD Reader and DVD/CD Burner for Apple-MacBook Air/Pro/iMac/Mini/MacBook Pro/ASUS/ASUS/DELL Latitude with USB-C Port Plug and Play(Silver)

Works perfectly to play cds on laptop computers

Identical to another review I read - This drive initially spun up the CDs (I tried several) and the CD showed up on my player app. When I clicked Import, it started the import but stopped after a minute or so and disappeared from the app and the Finder. I could not eject the disc unless I unplugged the drive and plugged it back in. I tried this drive on both a Mac Mini and my MacBook Air, and tried it with both the USB-C port and the USB 3.0 port using an adapter. Neither worked.

As expected, it works! The problem wasn't my old Apple drive, it was a software problem, but I had the old drive for a long time, so I retired it. This new one so far so good!

Copied some old family videos from DVDs to my 2019 Apple MacBook Pro and it did that job well. It didn't work on the DVD that had self-made photo album shows (i.e. when the individual photos are shown automatically one after the other).

Works as designed

Did not work with my Mac Mini. After plugging into USB-C port, it would start to run, I would insert an audio CD, it would pull up the menu and ask if I wanted to download it. I would click yes, it would show the first track downloading, but would stop spinning the CD, after a minute or two, it would give me an error message saying the download could not be completed. Then the whole unit would vanish from the list of devices, as if the power was off. I tried several times, even tried re-booting my system as recommended by the manufacturer, but nothing changed. Even tried just playing the CD, that did not work either. Unlike other's experience, I was able to get my CD to eject, after unplugging, then plugging back into the port and essentially re-activating the power. Returned this unit and ordered an Asus, which worked from the first plug-in with no issues, confirming the problem was this unit, not my system. Do not waste your money on this one, spend the extra $5-10 on a name brand unit.

Love it!!!How convenient. Perfect for my MacBook ProAmazon Delivery person dropped to next door mistakenly and I had to go find my package there.Yet I’m very happy with the quality of product!!!Highly recommended

The media could not be loaded. I saw that my review was requested and I found that super creepy and funny bc I literally just started using it today. I didn't forget that it existed but I could not get the motivation to start watching my show again, Terminator bc it takes more work I guess to get everything all set up rather than going on to a streaming service or YouTube. When u first get it up and ready there's something saying u can pay to update and u just exit, it's useless lol. Took me a few mins to figure out where everything is bc I need subtitles and u want to make sure the volume is all the way up. But I pretty much love it. It's a little confusing when u first put the disc in. U search in files and there seem like 20 options (all disc icon I think). I was trying to restart Season 2 or restart halfway in season 2 I guess since I remember most of it but I didn't want to be clueless and start where I was months ago before they took it off prime or whatever. It doesn't work perfectly but it does the job and I greatly appreciate it. And it's not super expensive. There seem to be so many extra buttons that don't do anything for whatever reason or they're just useless for me in particular. Maybe it's meant to be compatible with other types of laptops and features and systems, but they're not nuisances, I just ignore almost everything. I like it. I will almost never give 4-5 stars tho, nothing is perfect, that's not possible
