Is it possible to use my 2008 SuperDrive on my Macbook Pro?

I bought a SuperDrive in 2008 for my Macbook Air (first generation) and still use it. I just bought a MacBook Pro with Retina display and I am having trouble using the SuperDrive on my new computer. It said something like "SuperDrive not compatible with computer." However, when I look at this SuperDrive, it says it should be compatible. Because I have an older SuperDrive, will it no longer be compatible with my new computer?

Is there an external CD Drive that is compatible with a 13 inch aluminum MacBook from 2008?

My CD drive is broken and rather than having it fixed or replaced I was wondering if I could just buy an external drive. However every drive that I have found is not compatible with my computer, most are for macbook pro or air.

Can I link to the SuperDrive in my existing MacBook Pro with my MacBook Pro with retina display?

I have an early 2006 MacBook Pro, and I am waiting to receive my MacBook Pro with retina display. Will I be able to wirelessly access discs through that SuperDrive or do I need to buy an external one? I know you can link to ones in iMacs, but am not sure if the same is true for MacBook Pros.

Burning DVD's & CD's on Macbook Pro Retina

I am about to purchase a macbook pro and am wondering about creating CD's and DVD's. I know that I need an external superdrive with the retina display. Is this all I need to be able to create and burn a DVD or a CD as I will have to do this as part of my job.

Thanks!

Is there a way for this SuperDrive to work on a mid 2009 Macbook Pro?

I found a website saying that I could use a terminal command to disable my internal cd drive, making the computer able to use the external superdrive but now the superdrive isnt being registered by the computer... Any suggestions?
