According to Apple, only the following iMacs are compatible with the Apple SuperDrive:


  • iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5‑inch, 2019)
  • iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, 2017)
  • iMac (Retina 4K, 21.5-inch, Late 2015)
  • iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2019–2020)
  • iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, 2017)
  • iMac (Retina 5K, 27-inch, Late 2014 - 2015)
  • iMac Pro (2017)


Based on your tagline, yours may not be one of them ... and potentially why your Mac is having issues with it.
