Hi guys,
complete Apple noob here. I bought the following : Pioneer BDR-XD05 6x USB 3.0 External Bus Powered Portable Slim Blu-Ray Writer,
as it was recommended on several sites as being a good all round alternate to the Superdrive.
Now here comes the noobie bit, I connected the drive and all went well-power etc and the laptop recognised the unit. I even managed to play a dvd successfully, however the unit came with a cd which I assume was for loading drivers etc, my system however will not run autorun etc. Am I right to assume this is a windows disk? If so is there a generic app/program I can download to run the drive? Or do I even need to?
Now the unit comes with a Y connector ( 2 x USB) I am guessing that should not make a difference?
Regards
nick
