Q: My CD/DVD Drive on my iMac keeps ejecting every CD/DVD when I put a CD/DVD in the drive. It sounds like it tries to read the disc, buy fails finally. I thought maybe my Mac SuperDrive needs to be replaced so that I plugged in an external USB SuperDrive to my Mac. But fortunately, both of them ejected CD/DVD.
