Customer Ratings & Reviews

The drive is easy to install and works great the drive is small and doesn’t require much space

You may want to spring for a model with support for UHD discs if you want complete support for all modern Blu Ray releases, but this is good for the price. For those who care, I can confirm that this works fine for playback on Linux with VLC. You'll need to set up some additional dependencies for menu support (requires a Java 8 runtime) and content decryption, but it's easy enough to find instructions if you just search "blu ray playback <distro name>". The included CyberLink PowerDVD software works fine on Windows, but it might be a bit dated/bloated for some people's taste. You'll also see some ads in the software; though only for CyberLink's products.

I've had trouble with LG internal Blu-Ray drives but this external drive has been excellent from the start. Playing Blu-Ray discs just fine with included PowerDVD 12 on a Windows 10 64 bit PC, as well as a Win 7 64-Bit PC. A little loud but I don't care. Time will tell, but I'm pleased thus far.

Dear Best Buy. Good day to one and all. LG ODD. It's sleek, EZ to transport and does a decent with various Disc. What's more too said except I purchased it a very reasonable price for what it can do. THANKX BB

Despite being, in appearence like the drive it is replacing, this one works like a champ. I don't own any blnak blu-rays, but this dirve sure displays them with the right software, and it worked a bunch backing my blu-ray movies up to hard drive. Initially it was quite loud, but it quieted down and has been stable ever since.

Needed something since the computer didn't come with a dvd or BD drive .. so this was small, compact, and easy to fit in a pocket with the laptop 2-in-1 device to travel with .. Used to view some movies I purchased on down time while traveling .. as well as uploading older software that still has physical discs ..

It works as advertised. I have bought LG products and I have no issues

Nice and small and works great. Simple to use and is nice and slim to fit into my computer bag without even noticing it was there. Cord is mini USB 2, so the same cord works for my phone or the player. software loaded right up and worked as soon as I connected it. Always liked LG products.

Excellent bd player for r/w capability. Decent speed.

Haven't had a chance to try out the burning aspect but reading/playing DVD and Blu-Rays have been great. A little loud when first loading up but otherwise no complaints about the drive. The software though is about 5-6 versions behind what is currently out there which is a disappointment.

Installation was easy and the system operated flawlessly after installing the software. I did a completed backup of my computer with ease. Very good product. I also use it to view Blu-ray movies on my tv set.

This external DVD / BRay/Write & read unit did show very good performance, compatibility and easy going config/operation with the HP Envy laptop. There is only one observation. The unit looks to be fragile and need to be handled carefully. I mean is not designe for mobile when connected to the laptop.

Easy install.. Super slim.. Works perfectly. Great price

Small compact and easy to use. Great to have when the power and/or the internet are out.

I cannot complain about this burner at all. It does what it is supposed to do when I ask it to do it. Very thin so it fits along with my laptop and works great for playing Blu-ray when I'm away from home. It comes with the software for playing DVDs and Blu-ray discs, so one less thing to buy!

Great drive if you need something that will do Blue Ray DVD's and all the other type DVD's. I made a Blue Ray DVD and then copied it using the same drive. Worked perfect. A great Blur Ray writer. Fast for a USB. I could not ask for a better drive for the price.

I use it for 1. Recording music CD's, data DVD's. 2. Playback of video DVD's and Blu-Ray discs. I have not yet tried the BD-RE aspect of the device. This is a portable device I can use between several different computers. It works flawlessly, takes up little space, does not require power other than from the computer, and is easy to operate.

Works great. Use it with my computer that does not have a DVD Drive. Easy to use works great!

Bought this to convert our film library to a media center, This is fast and rips high quality files. We haven't had any issue with skipping. The small size makes it easy to store.

Great little drive. Didn't have any issues making it work with my new Mac Book Pro. Would have like to have some Mac Blu Ray Software with the drive, but all in all it did what I wanted it to do.
