Hello,

I have built Sierra OS Hackintosh using the latest Unibeast, configured it using latest Multibeast. As a boot loader I have chosen Clover UEFI (my configuration is Gigabyte Z87M-D3H (F11 fw) + i5 4470K). I also use Windows 10 installed in UEFI mode prior to Hackintosh. Both system are on separate SSDs.

When I connect Apple Superdrive USB nothing happens, drive does not show. Did I some mistake during Multibeast setting? I include my Multibeast setting in attachment. USB flash drives, external drives work without problem.

Thanks a lot!

@Kositch, please read the rules and update your profile with your build (Motherboard, CPU and Graphics Card).
The Rules said:
Profiles need to contain at least your primary system to assist others with helping you.
 
I have found these topics, but it describes how to make it work on systems with internal drive built (older Macs for which USB SuperDrive is not supported).

My Hackintosh Mac ID is iMac (27-inch, Late 2013), which is shipped without DVD drive, it means system supports it. And it also shows in "Information about System", but when I connect it to USB port it does not show in Finder and it gives me error: SuperDrive needs power and to plug it into one of the ports on the Mac. OK, I got it if I would connect ti via hub, which is not supported by SuperDrive, but I have tried direct ports (both 2.0 and 3.0) on MB.

So I don't now how to make it work on my Hackintosh :(
