After googling around to find my answer, i found out that Combo Drive can read CD/DVD but can only burn CD. And Superdrive can read CD/DVD and burn CD/DVD.

But i heard that Superdrive burn slower than Combo Drive. Is it true?

I'm using Superdrive now and I dont feel any slower than my old Combo....
a few secs difference maybe but definitely not slower..comparing apple to apple la...52x Vs 52x

slower because burn DVDs!! CDs only 700mb.. DVDs? how many gig? hah.. 4gb onwards... so.. by logic... u think la...

actually, by experience, super drive burn cd, much slower than it burns dvd, relatively speaking.

My super drive burn CD & DVD at the speed I pick. I don't have issue that super drive brun CD slower than combo drive. That's a BS.

what to you think? One is dvd(4.32GB) and another 1 is cd (700MB). Use common sense la

BURN!!! BURN!!!

How can it be slower when both of them are relatively the same product just that the other one does 1 burns an xtra medium.

I'd rather have a single drive which can handle all these tasks (AKA the Superdrive) over a drive which can write faster but with limited media-handling capabilities. Unless of course, you're some sort of *ahem* software distributor
