Review: I was expecting nothing and was pleasantly surprised - Using it to create my plex library. It's working like a champ on new blurays/dvds and decent on somewhat scratched blurays/moderately scratched dvds. Many of our discs were left out of the sleeves and cases for long periods of time with kids playing around/on them and I'm surprised that I've been able to rip over half of them. It feels solid and I feel like I made a good purchase. Works well with MakeMKV
Review: Snappy, pretty quiet, durable - This is a really high quality build that plays Bluray video quickly. The included Cyberlink software is very out of date, so you have to buy an upgrade, but the upgrade is cheaper than buying a retail license, so you save some money that way if you need Bluray player software. Works great over USB 3.0 -- my previous external Bluray player only supported USB 2.0, and it took ages to start buffering the video playback. This one is much snappier thanks to the greater throughput. The physical dimensions are of course quite large, but this is understandable: it takes technology a while to miniaturize. Since BDXL writing is state of the art right now, there are no slim form factor drives that can do everything this drive does, and as fast as this drive does it. If you were looking for a slim form factor device that isn't the size of a laptop and doesn't require external power, look elsewhere, but be aware that it will be slower and less capable. That is the tradeoff you must evaluate when buying an optical drive. The unit is solid and seems difficult to break, unless you dropped it out a window on concrete or something. The hard plastic shell feels like something you would expect out of a decent laptop build. You can definitely hear some noise when the disc starts spinning up and seeking, but once the drive is streaming your video or burning your disc, it's basically silent. You won't have to worry about hearing this drive over your movie, that's for sure. During playback, all you'll hear is the whirring of a small, low-speed fan -- a couple decibels at most.

### ⭐ Must buy extra software to play blurays! How ridiculous 60$ a year to play your blurays!
*by J***N on December 14, 2025*

The unit itself is all good but the included software won't even play a bluray without a watermark on it and loads a bunch of crap on your computer that you cannot use unless you by their ridiculously priced software.... which constantly beats you down about buying more more more... so I can burn blurays but can't play them cause I ditched their trojan horse software that is just a trick to get on your system to sell you a bunch of crap you don't need.....
