I have a friend who has a SuperDrive that is very slow when reading DVD and coping from a DVD on a Mid 2010 Mac Pro.



This is NOT A SUPERDRIVE FAILURE issue. The is another thread complaining of this issue.



but a nagging, and painfully slow performance problem



SuperDrive are supposed to read at 8x speed for CD-R

and are supposed to read at 18x speed for DVD-R



I have an MacBook Pro with OS X, 10.6.6

and my superdrive works fine



I believe the problem is not an OS issue

but with a specific set of models of superdrives being used on new Mac Pro models



I am trying to get confirmation from Apple on this issue
