I want to upload my many old CD's onto my MacBook Pro as I no longer have another place to play them easily. I was told by someone that it won't work, but read on here that it will if moved from another (older) computer.
Does anyone know if this holds true if I rip CD's using a peripheral device directly onto my computer?
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.3
Sure you can. For instructions, see:
Import songs from CDs into Music on Mac - Apple Support
As Kaz-K said, you will of course need a compatible CD drive. You don't need an Apple SuperDrive; any compatible CD drive, of which there are a number, should work.
Regards.

Hi,
I think you can, though you need to get external Superdrive and USB-C to USB-A adapter for ripping CDs with current MacBook Pro, since current MacBooks don't have CD/DVD drive.
This absolutely does work, I have done it myself with the Apple Superdrive (external).
Can I play music from ripped CD's on a current MacBook Pro (made using a peripheral)?
