Recommended for use with your new MacBook.

Another CD was bought earlier. I finally got it to match my new MacBook Pro 2017. Connected Confoly - voila! Just like in the good old days when Apple thought people wanted internal CD drives and a wide range of ports. But, you know, thin, light, stylish looking.

Pros
  • Beautiful design
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Very good USB-C Superdrive!

Delivered in safe packaging, in a very nice case with instructions and USB adapter. I was happy to find this super drive with a new USBC cable for my new MacBook Pro PLUS and an adapter for my old computer. Lightweight, works great and is a great price with the included case (really good case!) and adapter. I will update here if I run into any issues but so far satisfied and very happy with the seller.

Pros
  • Top
Cons
  • Only available in black

Impressive: Computer and accessories

I bought this for my MacBook Pro with Touch Bar. Very impressed with the packaging and the design. It has been packaged and looks like an Apple product which means it was made very well and with care. Space Gray matches the MacBook Pro perfectly. Plug it in and it just works. DVD and CD play without problems. We'll have to see how it holds up over the long term, but for $20 less than the Apple Superdrive, with and without a USC-B connector, it's worth it.

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Negative gift

Excellent external super drive

Good external super drive. It works, burns and plays DVDs on my 2017 MacBook Pro as well as an older Mid 2010 MBP (with USB-C to USB-A converter included) without any special drivers. I am using HighSierra 10.13. I even got it to work with my wife's almost 10 year old Dell laptop. I had some problems initially but the support team was very quick and helped to solve the problem. The device itself is small and very attractive. I would like to point out that this USB cable comes straight out of…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Weight

Listen to other reviewers or take a chance

Can't say I wasn't warned. Many reviewers said they couldn't eject their CDs from the drive. Well, I decided to take a chance because this thing got rave reviews on iMore.com. The very first CD I tried hung. There are several ways to eject a CD on a Mac and I've tried them all. There is no joy. The only thing I got right was trying an old CD first that I had already copied onto my computer so I still have the songs even though the CD comes home with a drive. Well if they had a real English…

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

never worked Ate the DVD. Be careful, there is no eject button.

Never worked. Tried drive on 2 different computers. It turned on, swallowed the DVD, but didn't show any activity on either computer. The Revain tech I spoke to walked me through the entire process, including the manufacturer's suggestion of using a knife to eject stuck DVDs (which didn't work for me, and apparently most others who have have complained). Revain refunded my money but my DVD got stuck. Buyers pay attention to the note in the description that there is NO MANUAL EXTRACTION OPTION…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Fits

A very good choice for mobile users.

I bought this unit to replace my old USB 2.0 external DVD drive. I'm a litigator. I receive a lot of evidence from the police and prosecutors on CDs and DVDs which I transfer to my hard drive as soon as I receive it. I have an ultraportable laptop with no optical drive. This drive works very well. The transfer speed is many times faster than my old drive. That saves me a lot of time. Built-in cable simplifies operation. I have a lot on my mind and too often have forgotten to take my cables with

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • No power

Best DVD drive I have ever had

I bought this as I was on a bus trip, left my DVD drive at home and need it to transfer photos from DVDs. I shoot on film and there is a great camera shop here in Savannah that still handles film! I'm glad I left my old drive at home as it doesn't require adapters for my MacBook Pro and is fast. I was also impressed with how well the drive was packaged from the factory and comes with a very nice and protective carrying case. It ejects the disc very smoothly, better than my noisy Apple drive. I…

Pros
  • GOLS certified

  • Almost never

Confoli Superdrive is cool!

I received the Confoly USB-C Superdrive last night. This Superdrive is a hub to hub connection on my new MPB Thunderbolt 3 port. When I first plugged it in, I didn't see anything on my desktop or anywhere else on my Mac. When I inserted a CD, iTunes popped up with all the information about the CD. When I put the DVD in the drive, My DVD Player (the software that came with my Mac) opened and started playing the movie. When the disc is inserted, you will see the disc on the desktop. Right click…

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • Good but not great
