Thanks for the reply
As this is my very first Mac,I am not sure which components are Mac specific.
Off to Amazon to have a look.

These specs are pretty sweet. OWC throws in some good software also.
Thumbs down from me. You can get slimline, USB-powered drives for half as much from Amazon and Newegg. Smaller, lighter, cheaper, and fewer cables.
I have one of these ..... Samsung SE-208AB/TSBS 8 x DVD+/-RW Slim Portable External DVD Writer - Black. Currently £21.74 on Amazon including the postage. Works a treat, Im very happy with it.
Thanks gregorsamsa
Nice to know it gets a seal of approval from 2 users.
It's always difficuly buying something priced as well as this,it's not
possible to know if it is a good buy until you actually get it.
