    This device works excellent and i have zero complaints. As for the teo USB ports, this is not uncommon for external peripherals that consume additional current and if your ports are not close enough, easy to work around. As optical media is being phased out, fewer models of these are being made. Highly recommended.

    Fantastic buy. I was struggling to find a Blu-ray player that would connect to my computer over USB that's fast and would allow me to backup my disks. A little more expensive than the other drives I tried. It kept working after a week when the cheap ones failed.

    The external blu ray player and write works extremely well with my surfact pro 3. Other than updating the antediluvian software bundle, I can find nothing about which to complain. And I looked!

    The LG - 8x External USB 2.0 Blu-ray Disc Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Disc Rewriter is a great quality product for the price. Although a higher cost than others, this represents the best available for an external USB Blu-ray Rewriter.

    It worked pretty much out of the box. This is the second Blu-Ray burner I bought, the first one I could not get to work at all. This one did so an excellent review.

    This is the perfect all around disc player and burner. Small size and USB power makes it portable to use with laptop or plug it into your desktop, which is how I use it. Plugged it in and it just works.

    I have really no problem with this external drive except for it feels a little on the light side. Like I could easily break it just by putting a disc in it. But is was super easy to set up. Warning, it does take two USB 2.0 spots if you want to use Blu-Ray. I have them to spare so it was no big deal to me but your set up might be different and it might be a problem for you. It sits on top of my computer and can be hooked up and unhooked when not needed. I do think it is a great bargain since we don't use DVD/Blu-ray disc much anymore.

    I have not had a chance to try this with a Blu-Ray disc, but worked very well with music CD and regular movie DVD. I installed a free Leawo Blu-ray player app (from the App store) with my Mojave 10.14.2 Apple laptop. My only complaint is the bottom tray where the disc goes is so thin and flimsy I worry about breaking it. So I am extremely careful. Please make this more sturdy!!!! I only needed one of the connections to my computer- not both of them. Overall very nice!!

    The LG 8x External Blu-ray disc rewriter has been a nice addition to my tower after the built-in DVD writer failed. It's a little louder but does a great job.

    I looked at the ratings for a good external Blue Ray/DVD drive as my computer did not have an internal drive. This one was very highly rated. It is easy to install and use. It comes with many features as well.

    Works great but...

    This is a nice unit..I use it with my Macbook Pro Retna display. I would have given it a 5 star but it doesn't come with software to run or burn Blu ray discs. Dvd works great..I've watched 2 full movies and was good to go. I downloaded a demo of software for the Blu-ray and they put a big logo in the middle to get you to register quickly. I will wait for it to go on sale again...and go thru with it. It is relatively quiet and burns discs quickly.. It also uses USB connection for power and input into your laptop or computer...it will use 1 or 2 depending on your USB revision. It's thin so travels nicely in a storage pouch in my bag...don't even know it's there.
