My USB Superdrive isn't working when I plug it into my M1 iMac (via USB-A adapter or via a USB hub). I receive a notification to plug it into a USB port on the Mac.
Is there a way to remedy this or is it simply no longer compatible?
iMac 24″, macOS 13.2
Is this an Apple Superdrive, that only works with a narrow range of Macs?
I bought one of these, works great...
Similar one in stock...

FWIW, A SuperDrive should work with a USB to USB-C adapter. It definitely won't work plugged into a hub.
Just to add, I still have a SuperDrive I purchased so long ago I can't remember. It still works with all my Macs. I use the USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter to plug it into my M1 MacBook Air.
Below works fine over there
Why is that?
Beats me. It's always needed to be plugged directly into a port.
Thanks.
You're welcome. I would suggest it's because there's not enough power coming from a hub but it doesn't work with powered hubs.
Thank you! I realized my USB-C adapter wasn't directely connected to the iMac. This helped solve my issue.
I appreciate the help.
You're welcome.
