Tried burning a cd and same problem. Came defective right out of the box. Amazon has this listed as Apple and I paid the full price that Apple sells for, but was shipped a counterfeit. In the pictures the counterfeit is on the left. The font and picture on the box is different and the black bottom of the super drive is much more matte and well made than the one that I was sent.
And lastly I should have known it was a counterfeit since the manual is in Chinese!! I noticed as soon as I opened the box that there were two casting flaws in the aluminum case. I thought "That's strange, Apple wouldn't put that out". But I didn't think anything else of it. Then the drive wouldn't fully load a CD on to my computer.
Then it would totally lock up Finder.

Then it stopped working at all and I couldn't get the disc out. It stopped showing up as a drive on my MAC. I took it the Apple store to have them test it They looked up the serial number and it wasn't in their database hmmm. So I bought a new one at the Apple store. Started comparing I found at least 20 subtle differences in the packaging and hardware that clearly indicate this was a FAKE!
The company has even changed their name since then. I received a used item. You would think they would describe the item as used- the listing is very misleading. It has two deep scratches on the face of the aluminum case. Plus the drive would take a long time to boot up and load. When I went to open the files on my data CD in finder they would not open.

I tried many times to eject my disk and am still unable to do so. Not an Apple Product. Doesn't work!
This is not an authentic Apple product! I thought since the price is the thing as the real deal, I was safer buying this. But it has never worked properly with my MacBook Pro, and it finally stopped working alltogether.
Technical Details
I took it into the Apple store, and guess what? It's a fake. They ran the serial no through their system and it doesn't exist. So, it may work fine with other computers, but not with Macs. The seller shouldn't be marketing it as an authentic Apple product, and it shouldn't cost the same as one. Buyer Beware! Luckily, Amazon has great customer service, as it's been about 6 months since I bought it. They're honoring my return, but honestly you should save yourself the trouble. I am happy with mine and ordered one for my dad.
I spent an hour on the phone with him because the new one kept spitting disks back out. A useful tidbit to be aware of if you are trying to help someone with the same problem is to make sure that the superdrive is right side plain aluminum up and the black side with the Apple logo is on the bottom.
Someone might naturally assume that the logo should be on the top. Arrived today and am already loving it!

I've had my MacBook Air for at least 2 years and this was a much needed upgrade. I hated to pay the money for it as I do feel this is something that should already be included, but that's a different story for another time. I was not expecting this item to arrive until Monday, but I received it on today, a Saturday.. The product, itself, has been pretty awesome so far.
I originally bought it for things like installing a printer ect, but I have tried out it's burning capabilities and am really enjoying it. One more thing, I do wish the cord was a little longer as I do not have a desk, but I am able to work around it either way. This horrendous machine is a nightmare.
I had previously attempted to use a VersionTech copy, looks exactly the same but missing the Apple branding on the bottom.
Top Three Picks
The VersionTech worked better than this, but still didn't do it's job. For this one, I inserted a blank DVD and it would immediately spit it out. Suck it in, spin it for a hot second, spit it out.
Rinse Lather Repeat. The VersionTech did the same, but would actually read CDs albeit it wouldn't recognize them until a few minutes of beating the thing like a redheaded stepchild--PS it's okay, I can say that because I'm a redheaded stepchild. Anyways, thought maybe the lens had dust on it or something, despite being brand new, so I popped a lens cleaning disk in there which had worked in the VersionTech, although it didn't fix the problem. Sucked in the cleaning disc, spun it around, made some sounds, slowed down Nothing will pop up on my desktop or in finder Get fast, free shipping with Amazon Prime.
