External DVD RW drive for new MBA

[paulkimlax]

I need a external DVD drive for my new MBA and wondering if you guys have any luck finding a non Apple unit. I don't want to pay $80 for Apple drive.

I found a drive on ebay for $40ish, claiming that it works on MBA but don't if I should trust ebay.

Pretty much any external drive will work, there shouldn't be any incompatibility issues. The one you linked to works.

As would these: (and yes, works with 1 usb)

$25 AMIR
