    Recommend an external DVD drive for my Mac Book Air
    Hi,

    I wanted to get an external dvd drive for my mac book air. What are some good drives I can get that is not the one from the apple store super drive?

    The ones I've found on newegg.com requires two usb ports to power the unit. Are there single USB corded drives? thanks!

    Get a superdrive off of the "Bay" for less.

    I have heard the apple ones are pretty good. They only need the one USB cable and are pretty stable. Plus the design is Hella good. I will agree though Apple likes there price points. Still I don't think $100 is too much to ask for the device. That said, EBAY?

    Here is a website with a list of assorted DVD drives. I think you'll find one that you like. Apple's price seems to be right in the middle.

    Hope this helps!
    It's all good.
