External Drive...choice?

The Apple drive will do the trick and will look good with the iMac.

I've bought this one to go with my new iMac, eventually when we can order!

I agree the apple drive would look better, but for what i will be using it for, ie not much really, for £20 I thought I'd chose this and get it out when I need it.

hope it works with the new imac Its a standard USB powered, so should do

ok - I had just about the same question. But, want to throw blu-ray into the mix as well.

Any other recommendations for something that does the same as the Superdrive, but also plays (optionally writes) Blu-Ray?

I got this one from amazon.

Looks great and works great for writing & playing Blurays on my GF's MacBook Pro, so it should work just fine on the new iMacs.

Irrelevant Post, sorry

Agree Samsung SE-506AB portable looks good to me.

I work with Photoshop, and Adobe Premier, After Effects and I play WoW on MAC and Star Wars Old Republic and other PC only games. I have a Synology DS212+ NAS for Data and Backup.


Going with:
27" 3.4GHz quad-core Intel core I7 with 8MB L3 cache
8GB Ram Upgrade to 32GB 1600MHz DDR3 from OWC for =+$200.
1TB 7200rpm Fusion Drive or 768GB SSD with External Thunderbolt Raid Drive
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX Graphic processor with 2GB of GDDR5 memory
AppleCare Protection Plan
Samsung SE-506AB Slim Portable Blu-ray Writer

Just a Guess like every one Else. The 768GB SSD may bring it over $4000.

Have a Great day

Hope they come out soon!!!!!
