Q: Dead burner - what to do?
I have an 2009 iMac, and it's working fine...except the Superdrive is burning DVDs with lots of errors; maybe it's time to get a new external burner.
I checked out units from OWC, but I wanted to look at the Apple Superdrive, too. Is it true that the 2009 iMac won't work with an external Superdrive. I've received conflicting information on this, and I wanted to confirm (or refute) it.
Thanks!
iMac (24-inch Early 2009), iOS 7.0.3

To avoid all confusion, your iMac doesn't meet the requirements for the USB SuperDrive.
