It is only functional on MacBook Air models, you would need to replace the internal of your iMac, or look into another brand of USB external optical drive.

NO. MacBook Air AND Mac Mini Server only work with this drive. Due to the way the drive is powered from the computer, only these two work with it.
...shame, I know. As if you want a second drive for other Mac laptops or iMacs (or even separate Windows machines), you have to use a third party manufacturers one instead, as only the MacPro takes more than one optical drive at the same time.
Replace drive is best advice.- Answered by JS from Hove
