Apple Computer Cd Drive

[0.205 lb] Open the box, open the computer, screw the card in, put the CD in the optical drive to load the driver, plug in the internet cable, Go.

[3.6 W (Active)] When I recently purchased a new mini computer to replace my 8 year old desk top tower PC I knew I would have to also purchase an external cd/dvd drive because I am constantly ripping my ever growing cd collection into my computer so I can put the music on a portable 2TB hard drive for my car, which no longer has a cd player. I had purchased a couple of the usual external disc drives that do not fully eject the tray and you have to pull it out by hand and push it back in, which is a totally pain especially since they are so light weight and you also have to hold the unit down with your other hand while you push the tray back in so it won't move around... totally inconvenient for the amount of discs I knew I would be putting in and ejecting out of the drive. Luckily, I found this awesome unit on B&H and have been thrilled with it from the second I plugged it in. It stays exactly where I want it on my desk, smoothly ejects and pulls back in the tray, and has WAY faster read speeds than the cheap flimsy drives I used before purchasing this great device. I knew I wasn't going to need a blu ray drive so I saved a few dollars from buying this unit which is just for, since it won't read blu ray discs. Within a couple of weeks of receiving this I have already been able to rip a few hundred cds from my collection in the short amount of time I get to do this task, and the portable drive for my car is getting filled up fast with the music I enjoy listening to. HIGHLY RECOMMEND and worth every penny.

[Fabric] I need CD blanks to first backup my computer, in case of external/internal hard drive failure. And to copy/burn and to store relevant data. So I choose Verbatim because they are highly reliable and I have had success with them before.

[-94 to -59 dBm] Got an older computer that can't connect to 5G? Is your WIFI signal weak and a bit unstable? The TP-Link Archer T4U Plus is the answer. Reasonably priced and very easy to install if you have a DVD/CD drive built in. If you don't have a DVD/CD drive you can easily download the driver...still a snap.

[USB-A Female] This drive only works on newer Apple Computers. I had to purchase another DVD/CDW drive to work on my old iMac G-5 to replace the worn out drive built in the computer; I was lucky that B&H had that drive and it works fine.  I had no problems with the Apple USB SuperDrive on my new computer and will keep when I replace the newer computer (7 years old now) as the new iMacs do not have a built in drive.

[4x 128 GB] I bought the computer with 4 DIMM modules and augmented with these (for less than from Apple) to have 6 modules of 8.

[Slot] Great CD/DVD for my iMac. Was plug and play, as advertised at about half the price of an Apple Superdrive.

[0.75 MB] This compact portable CD writer/drive works fantastic on our new gateway laptop.

[5.425 lb] Fast and Quiet. Called Apple to figure out how to format the drive. From there on it has been Fast and Quiet.

[USB-A 2.0] Save your $$$ and buy it over Apple external drive. Probably made same factory.
