No currently-available Mac has an internal DVD drive.

None have had an internal DVD drive just shy of a decade.

Yes, you can connect an external DVD drive to most any recent Mac, though you may need to use a dock or dongle.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities.

In order to help, we need to know what iMac you have. Please use Identify your iMac model - Apple Support for reference.

You can also go to the Apple menu () > About This Mac and let us know.

As mentioned Apple has not had internal DVD drives for about 10 years now. If you need one then I’d recommend navigating to Macsales.com, they have lots and I am sure you will find one that meets your needs.
