Worse case your out 40 dollars. How bad could it be.

What do you need it for?

The pre-slot-loading iMacs (which this is) are rather limited.

You won't have FireWire, AirPort or USB 2 for one thing, so your transfers are going to be pretty slow.

It can certainly do basic stuff, but it could also be a waste of $40...
