Customers value the ease of use, Blu-ray functionality, compact size, and compatibility of the 8x External USB 2.0 Blu-ray Disc Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Disc Rewriter. Many appreciate its performance and the affordable price point. However, some users have expressed concerns regarding the included software and the noise level during operation.

    I have a MacBook Air and wanted an external CD/DVD writer. The Apple branded one writes CD/DVD but for almost same price this LG one even writes Blue Ray - so I decided to give it a shot. I felt that it was very noisy while operating. It also took too long for the MacBook Air to recognize this device and it initially felt like the computer froze. I wish the Apple branded one wrote Blue Ray.

    I purchased this disc burner which was recommended to me by the Geek Squad. Downloading the software was a breeze and I was able to burn my DVD Home movie to it. It worked wonderful and burned the disc quickly. From when I downloaded the software, connected the burner and burned my first disk it was all within an hour. It burned the movie even though I had put the movie together using Movavi and burned the disc with the software provided by the burner. Wonderful!!!

    Works well, except this does not read UHD disks. Descriptions are a bit thin regarding the differences between the players. If you want the UHD capabilities you need the next model number up, BP60N. Only had it a week, and not much use will go through it, so we will see how the reliability holds up. Im just glad someone is still making these devices.

    A decent external drive

    The drive seems to be doing quite well, so far, though I am having issues with one Blue-ray disk that does function on my PS4. It is power exclusively by USB cables, but it requires two open ports to do so (though it may only need two for blue-ray). The provided cables are also quite short, so the drive may need to live on top of your computer in some fashion.

    Since many laptops now come without the drive, they are much lighter and easy to carry. This separate drive is thin and compact enough to carry only if you need it.
