Can you have more than one Apple USB SuperDrive in operation at the same time on a Macbook 15" Retina?
I have a late 2013 Macbook Retina 15" 2.3 GHz i7 and was wondering about purchasing two Apple USB SuperDrives, i.e. one for each USB port. I have a number of DVDs I want to add to my hand-coded media entertainment app and running two drives simultaneously would make the import process much quicker.
My assumption would be that you can, but any info from others would be much appreciated. -

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?

It says on the box that the superdrive won't work with any models with an existing optical drive so i presume you wouldn't be able to.

Is this usb superdrive compatible with vcd?
- Asked by Marian C

- Flag as inappropriate (Is this usb superdrive compatible with vcd?)
Answerit all depends on what you mean by VCD. if it is the media used in Asiatic Countries as a Replacement for DVDs (mostly Pirated medias), then YES, the Drive will recognize it, as it is nothing but a simple CD with Video Data Recorded. the only thing you will need is a Proper Movie Player (Software) which can decode 'DAT' video files, as that is the Format VCDs are encoded with. VLC Player should be able to decode that you.
Mind, the answer is based on the assumption that VCD that you mention in the Question is the one that I Described in the PRELUDE.- Answered by Thomas B from Shelton
