The MacBook Pro 13-inch (Mid 2012) model was the last MacBook Pro model to include a built-in optical drive. An optical drive, also known as a CD/DVD drive, is a type of storage device that uses laser technology to read and write data on CDs and DVDs.

The inclusion of the optical drive in the MacBook Pro 13-inch (Mid 2012) model was seen as a valuable feature for users who needed to read or write CDs and DVDs for various purposes such as backup, install software, watch movies or listen to music.

After the Mid 2012 model, all MacBook Pro models (13-inch and 15-inch) have been released without an optical drive, instead they rely on external optical drives or other types of storage devices such as USB drives, external hard drives, or cloud storage. This change allowed Apple to make the MacBook Pro thinner, lighter and more portable, but also meant that users would have to purchase an external optical drive to read or write CDs and DVDs.
