I just dropped it off for a faulty firewire 400 drive, and my super drive wont burn dvd-rw's. How long do you think it will take to get it back?

Pretty hard for us to tell, actually.

It all depends on what they need to fix, and if they have the spare parts available or not, etc.

I would ask the people at the place you delivered your imac instead. Good luck and lets hope you get your mac fixed soon

I took mine in for an LCD panel and SuperDrive replacement. They told me up front that they didn't have the SuperDrive in stock. Still, I got a call just a little over 24 hours later saying it was ready to pick up. I'm sure parts availability, diagnostic/repair time, and their current backlog of repairs are all factors, but based on my experience and what I've heard from friends, I'd guess anywhere from a day to a week. Hopefully, you'll be as pleasantly surprised as I was.
