    I primarily use this drive to burn CDs and DVDs from my 27 inch iMac. I prefer a tray on my optical drives, so I'm willing to except that this drive takes up a little more desk real estate.

    LG Blu-Ray burner

    I've used this twice and was successful on burning a disc once. The first disc took over 3-hours to burn, but it came out great (Go-Pro video). Second disc was burning a home movie from my Sony camera and also took over 3-hours and when the disc was being finalized, the software or player stopped working and the disc was not completed, wasting a disc and all that time. I have not tried to burn another disc since that mistake.

    I bought this so I could read blue ray disk drives. It was great to be able to read them. Unfortunately, my video card and the codec had some problems. The refresh rate was noticeably slow for "panning" scenes. The video codec somehow actually had problems buffering the data and that caused problems too. Fortunately, I upgraded my video card and now there aren't half as many problems. There is an occasional accidental pause which may be because of my screen saver. I still haven't figured that one out.

    It should come with an example of how you can make, edit , then burn. I,m still trying to figure it out.

    I like to sit on the patio during the summer and I wanted to watch my Blu-ray and DVD's while out there on my laptop. This is just what I needed, nice and small and plays the disks just fine. It was just what I needed.

    This is a great product if your are making your own home movies or want to create BD from your digital photos. It allows the user to create menu pages and you can customize your photos for future use.

    I looked at several different bluray drives and this one had the better ratings. The drive was a simple install basically plug it in. So far it has functioned exactly as I would expect.
