My superdrive is not working on my late 2013 iMac.
iMac is running mac OS 10.13.4
I've done an SMC reset, and that has not helped.
The drive makes a short noise when i plug it in but then fails to load a CD.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi there, DJ-JS!
Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities! It sounds like you are having an issue with your SuperDrive not working properly with your iMac and I’m happy to help! I suggest taking a look at this article to Get help with the slot-loading SuperDrive on your Mac computer. This article will give you additional steps you can take if you are still having issues with your SuperDrive, along with the next steps to take if you continue having issues.
Cheers!
First reset the SMC 2-3 times without any peripherals attached an then retest. Use the following link for instructions on the SMC reset.

If this does not work, please reset the NVRAM using the directions below.
Hi,
Thanks for posting, the problem is with my iMac and not the superdrive.
I have just tried the superdrive and the disco on my MacBook Air, and everything is ok.
Do you have any other suggestions?
Thanks
Hi, Thanks for posting.
This did not fix my problem.
Is there anyway to check if the superdrive is being recognised correctly by the iMac?
