Am I missing something in your post? Couldn't you still unplug the Apple SuperDrive connected to the Mac Mini and plug it into your computer?

The Apple document you reference in your original post seems to talk about network sharing, not sharing by picking it up and moving the drive. crazy


On a Mac since 1984.
Currently: 24" M1 iMac, M2 Pro Mac mini with 27" BenQ monitor, M2 Macbook Air, MacOS 14.x; iPhones, iPods (yes, still) and iPads.
