Mac Model A1379 Super Drive

My Mac A1379 superdrive works on my older MacBook Air, but does not work on my new Mac mini?


Any suggestions?

Yup, sure, keys2la… the A1379 has to be plugged directly into your Mac Mini, or used with a powered dock, NOT a hub, a dock… plus you’ll need a USB-C to usb-a female adapter… see Amazon Canada link for a picture of one : https://www.amazon.com/CableCreation-Adapter-Female-Compatible-MacBook/dp/B01FM51812?ref_=ast_slp_dp&th=1
