DVD super drive for Macbook Pro 2018

Hey y’all! I have a DVD superdrive from mid-2012 that i’m using right now, but I was wondering if the graphics would be better on the new superdrive you can purchase on the Apple products page. The old one from 2012 i’m using currently I feel like is kind of bad quality now (since it’s 8 years old). Would buying the new superdrive alleviate this problem (have better graphics/resolution)?


Thanks!

MacBook Pro 13”, macOS 10.15

Hello,


The USB SuperDrive Apple has listed on their website technically has not been updated since 2007. DVDs are not a high resolution medium. A newer SuperDrive would not make your existing DVDs look any better.
