Review: Works Great!! - I recently got a new Macbook Air with a USB-C port instead of plain USB ports. I also got an adapter to allow me to still use my USB drives and devices. When I tried to burn a CD from iTunes, my computer couldn't write to my burner through the adaptor. Amicool to the rescue! I purchased an Amicool External DVD drive with USB 3.0 and USB-C cables built into the drive. It's great. Since the cable is attached to the drive, I don't have to worry about misplacing the cable. The drive worked great. It was fast and easy to use. Thanks, Amicool! One small thing - the cable attaches under the drive and you have to bend it back to plug it into your computer. If you don't get it just right the drive is sitting on the cable and so the drive doesn't sit solidly on the table. If you push the cable down hard, it will, but it's easy to not do that. I have an external hard drive with the cable built-in, but instead of coming out of the bottom, it comes out of the side. Maybe for the next upgrade. . . But it's an excellent DVD drive and I'm very happy with my order.
Review: Great plug and play DVD player for my MacBook Air (2020)! - The one thing that made this DVD player stand out from the others I was looking at was the fact that it had a USB-C adapter already attached to the player. I have a MacBook Air (2020) that only has USB-C ports so this was important to me. I’ve checked and both the USB and USB-C adapters work beautifully. I did not have to install a driver as Mac already has a driver included in their system. I had to search for it because it doesn’t appear in the Mac Launchpad or in the utilities folder like in previous MacBooks. The easiest way to find it is to do a search using “spotlight” (the magnifying glass icon on the top right of your screen). Another plus is that the DVD tray where you insert your DVD actually pops out at the press of the button on the DVD player itself. My last external DVD player did not have this and I had to eject it from within the app or by right clicking on the DVD icon from my computer. This didn’t always work out so well. I haven’t tried writing anything to a DVD yet, but I don’t normally do that anymore anyway. But for my purposes, this DVD player works beautifully. This DVD player does not work when connected directly to a projector. But there is a work around. If you connect your computer to your projector and the DVD player is connected to your computer, you’ll be able to project your movies onto any surface. It’s also important to note that this DVD player does not connect to other devices like tablets or phones. Again, it only works when connected to a computer. Over all, I’m pretty pleased with this DVD player! It’s portable and the wires fold away nicely for storage. It does everything I need it to do.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Pairs well with MacBook Air
*by K***. on May 27, 2025*

I needed a CD drive to pair with my MacBook Air and this worked perfectly! I was just needing to access photos, so I can’t speak to how it does playing any other type of media. Note that it is older technology so it takes a little while to load. I like how the cords are self contained and powered through your computer so you don’t need to keep track of an extra power cord. I originally bought the CD drive with just the USB 2.0 cord and tried to use an adapter; this however did not work. If your computer uses USB-C then make sure you are buying the correct CD drive. I like that this drive offers both options. Overall, this is compact, sturdy, and gets the job done. It works great for the price I paid.
