    Plug and play with my Windows 10 based PC. Does not come with any software with this unit however finding software for your needs should not prove to be an issue.

    Works great for reading in cd's and dvd's...With cd or dvd in it the eject button doesn't work you have to open it by clicking the eject in Finder on the iMac took me a while to figure that out.

    Got this drive to go with a new Thinkad X11 Carbon to take advantage of the USB 3 ports. Really happy with it - only complaint is the dual USB connectors - 1 for power. Overall a great product.

    No problems, fast, reliable and portable. I purchase the 2 year warranty just in case but so far no signs of trouble.

    I've long like Pioneer stuff, and hopefully this item holds up and performs as well as everything else I've owned from them. Seems to work just fine on different systems.

    I have a windows pc, and it works for my computer. Ive heard that its the software that is made for apple, but i had my own software for burning blu rays, so i went with the cheaper option

    Great at burning, but be careful taking discs out

    The eject and door open mechanisms seem a bit rough. We sometimes have trouble getting the disc out. At one point, the door would not open, and we had to shut down, unplug everything and then plug it back in. That was sufficient to get it going again. We considered taking it back, but my spouse likes the burn functionality, and it's support of many formats. He uses it to store extremely high resolution audio files, in uncompressed audio formats. I would recommend this to a friend with the above caveats.

    Works great, no complaints about functional, but for the price, I feel the construction is flimsy and it is not quiet.

    This guy is fractions of an inch thick and not much bigger than the disks it records on or plays. It will take the extra-large blyrays for over 100 GB of storage.

    This item does just what I wanted. However, it took a bit of doing to get it to talk to my computer. We had to download extras to finally get it to work.

    Although this Blu-Ray Drive has no bundled software for either Windows or macOS, I use it to record and play movies using available freeware and it works great on both operating systems.

    I upgraded my laptop to a thin and light and it has no disc drive. Normally that wouldn't bother me, but occasionally I need a disc drive for work. This one works well.

    The disc drive works well and does the job for burning and playing DVDs that it is supposed to do. However, it is a little slower in burning DVDs than I expected.
