Because Optical Discs Still Matter If you’ve purchased a new iMac®, MacBook®, MacBook Air®, MacBook Pro® with Retina® Display, Mac® mini, Mac Pro®, or any of a large number of Windows® PC models, you may have noticed something’s missing—there’s no optical drive. If you’re like countless other people, you still have CDs and DVDs (not to mention a Blu-ray Disc™ or two), and a computer with no way to use them. Sonnet makes it simple to restore what’s absent—just connect a Performer™ Blu-ray Player to load software, import CDs, burn CDs and DVD-ROMs, and play DVDs and even Blu-ray movies. You can even boot your Mac from an OS X DVD! Performer is a BD-ROM/8x DVD±RW drive that connects to and is powered by your computer’s USB port. There’s no need to connect a separate AC power supply. This Sonnet optical drive is compact—it’s about the size of two stacked CD cases—and takes up so little space, you can use it just about anywhere.Blu-ray Movie Playback Software Included If you’re a lover of movies, recent television shows, and documentaries, viewing them on Blu-ray disc offers an immersive experience, with pristine image quality and engrossing extras. Because support for Blu-ray disc playback is not native to OS X® or Windows®, you'll find the included Blu-ray player software(1) very handy, enabling you to watch Blu-ray movies on your computer or attached monitor. |
