The Apple SuperDrive - Watch Movies on Your Mac With Poki Games
Several years ago, Apple stopped selling Macs with built-in floppy drives and instead began to sell external optical drives, called SuperDrives. These drives can be connected to a USB port on the computer and read or write CDs and DVDs. This allows the user to backup the data on the computer and play music on other devices. A SuperDrive can also be used to watch movies on your Mac. It is a relatively small, light device that is about the length of a smartphone.
The first SuperDrives were designed in 1988, and they were mainly intended for use on the Apple II series. They came in a Snow White-styled plastic case. The contacts on the USB cable were soldered directly to the SuperDrive. The drive was able to read Macintosh HFS, MFS, and FAT12 file formats.
When using the Apple SuperDrive on a computer running OS X, the software automatically launches the DVD Player. This app allows the user to control the movie's play/stop, subtitles, and volume. The user can also skip to chapters and slow the movie down. The controls appear as a floating panel on the bottom of the screen. The SuperDrive is also compatible with the Windows operating system. The SuperDrive can also be inserted into a PC for use with a virtual machine.
The SuperDrive has a built-in charging port, which makes it easy to charge the drive. It weighs 265 grams and is roughly the size of a roll of quarters. It comes with a rubber band clamp to hold the drive in place. However, it can be hard to reach the rubber band.
The SuperDrive was also available in a larger version, the 1600XXL. This drive is made of machined-aluminum and features three ultra-high-output LED emitters. It has an adjustable strap, which means it can be used on most common handlebar sizes. It also has heat management, a mode memory function, and accessory mounts. It also has Smart Connect compatibility.
The Apple SuperDrive is still sold by Apple today. It can be bought for $79. It can be used on a Mac with a USB-A port, but not on a MacBook with a USB-C port. It can be used to install software and burn DVDs and CDs. It isn't compatible with Blu-ray discs, but it does support double-layer DVDs. It is also designed to work with Macs on battery power.
The SuperDrive is not compatible with the original four Mac models. The first models, the Macintosh II and the Macintosh SE, shipped with an IWM disk controller. The M0244 upgrade kit can replace the IWM with a SWIM disk controller.
Some users complain that the SuperDrive is incompatible with some USB hubs. However, if you have a hub with a USB-A port, it should be fine. If you have a MacBook, however, you will need a USB adapter to convert to USB-A. This is a major disadvantage if you're planning on converting your drive to a USB-C connection.
