    5.0 out of 5 stars Perfect 4K blu ray disc drive

    N. · December 11, 2024

    It is very durable, I've already used it a lot now and no signs of deterioration. The only complaint I have is that you have to connect it to SATA cables. Ugh it is a pain if you're like me and your case really doesn't have the space or opening for a drive. But I knew what I was buying when I got it just be aware. Otherwise a great piece of tech

    5.0 out of 5 stars Works with verbatim bd-r DL and vantec nexstar DX2, firmware 3.10 MK enables libredrive

    e. · April 12, 2023

    Used makeMKV with 42GB movie and it burned this verbatim bd-r DL disc in 26.5 mins, I saw speeds up to 8.1x using Asus bw-16d1ht inside vantec nexstar DX2 usb3 external enclosure. This is the DX2 not the original DX, replaced the power supply with delta electronics adp-50yh B power adapter for a laptop supplies 12v 4.16amps 50watts , connector is a perfect fit , asus fits great in the enclosure.I saw no bubbling or damage of this verbatim bd-r DL disc after the burn, someone else reviewed that their disc bubbled, that can only be from a burner that has a laser that's too strong. Get the one I use and it should work 100%Tutorial: use makemkv and select backup and check the box for decrypt these files. Use ImgBurn to burn those folders called bdmv, makemkv, certificate. It preserves all menus , subtitles, etc from the original. It will play on a PS5, which is known to not play burned Blu rays.Flash the stock 3.10 firmware with a cross patched firmware called 3.10 MK, makemkv than recognizes that libredrive is available and that microcode is enabled.*update - I bought this external case beginning of April 2023, it's now middle of Sept 2023, so about 5 months, its held up quite nice, I've ripped through 121 DVD's and 70 Blu rays with e burner and this case. The case has held up well. I did have a failure of the Asus bw-16d1ht which died pretty quick, the 2nd Asus bw-16d1ht I got has been holding okay so far however I've had to disconnect it and reconnect it a few times , it appears like it just stops being recognized possibly due to overheating. It could be because the case has not enough air flow and the drive is naturally hot, dunno. I did have to find a guy on the makemkv forum, his guide is called "Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2023", and his username is Billycar11, he makes custom flashers to enable libredrive/ microcode. The second Asus bw-16d1ht had a much more recent manufacture date which can explain why it was more reliable but would not allow me to use the 3.10 MK firmware, so Billy had to make me a custom flasher, very strange and cool , it executed using .BAT files which I haven't seen since the early years of windows. cost was like $25 but he used some strange payment app called Zelle. it updated asus to 3.11. if this drive dies he recommended pioneer drives. from reading Bolo reviews the internal ones are more reliable, blly also has a list of specific models as well. oh also the delta power supply still works well

    5.0 out of 5 stars One-stop CD/DVD/Blu-Ray Management Device

    M. · July 15, 2019

    I needed this to download my disc music/movie collection into my computer and free up some storage space in my house. It works really well - went through every single CD/DVD/Blu-Ray disc in my (extensive) collection in a few hours (I expected 7-10 days, based on prior experiences with other computers). They’ve been sitting in my storage room for decades, waiting for the time to make the move to software. So glad I can claim those sq. ft. and get some old junk out of the house. Plus, I can burn, copy, reformat, watch/play, and record whatever I need into CD/DVD/Blu-ray in the future. Anything I needed from a disc - this device carried it out without a bit of stress or anxiety.No rattling, squeaking, screeching, or otherwise odd, annoying, or distracting noises to speak of. Just a fan when it’s running really fast, which I like so I know it’s running well.It’s plug-and-play - secure to the desktop tower, connect a SATA wire to the computer’s MB, connect to the power supply and it and runs (like any HDD). It has software, sure, but I go w/o it. Give it something to work on, and it has everything on screen within avg. 5-15sec. It’s good to get something that does it’s job and holds up like I expect it to for a decent price.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Great drive! VERY POOR Amazon shipping practices beware!

    M.D. · January 31, 2020

    I ordered two of these a few days apart, both sold by Bolo. The first was uneventful, it came boxed inside another box with packaging and works perfectly. The second one they simply slapped a label on the tiny product box and shipped it. It arrived with a large hole in the box as well as a crushed corner. I should have immediately sent it back but I tried to use it, my thought was it could be a perfectly good drive. When compared to the first one performing the exact same tasks the poorly shipped one would make louder reading noises and even failed where the other did not. Needless to say it's going back. I strongly suggest if you see poor or damaged packaging on your sensitive high density BD drive don't waste time like I did, just send it back immediately. The laser mechanisms are fragile.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Works like a charm, even with DVD movies and TV-shows

    D. · June 17, 2024

    The purpose for buying this drive and the Vantec NST-536S3-BK NexStar DX USB 3.0 External Enclosure for SATA Blu-Ray/CD/DVD Drive all black, was to be able to rip, make an exact digital copy of my, old DVD movies and TV-shows that have not even been remastered to Blu-ray, and then my Blu-ray movies and TV-shows, that have still not been remastered to UHD. Then using Topaz Video AI 5, I would remaster them all myself to UDK (4K). I have two fairly new and powerful Laptops, both running latest version of Windows 11 64-bit. This drive the Vantec enclosure, I am happy to report is reading all the disc's I tried so far! In contrast before that, I tried two different model, slim USB enclosure's with absolutely no luck!

    Good blu-ray but why there is no player?

    E. · May 4, 2023

    It is perfect in Windows 11. And the DVD in its packege provides you 4 tool softwares.And with it I can use my Windows DVD. But why there is no DVD or blu-ray player? As you know, most media software pre-installed in Windows 10 or 11 can't play related files.

    Qualidade . Bom !

    E.A.d.S. · March 22, 2023

    O produto não pode faltar , é bom .

    Ottimo

    C.A. · December 22, 2024

    Ottimo masterizzatore, testato con blu Ray da 25 e 50 Gb di varie Marche, tutti andati a buon fine.

    An old design that works well and should prove reliable.

    S.W. · February 15, 2024

    Well-made and should prove reliable. I manage up to 40x read speeds which is sufficiently impressive but I did get a few read failures with some of my old DVD burns of many years ago, but this is to be expected.I haven't done any writing using this drive just yet and so can't comment on this aspect of performance.Overall recommended.

    Writes Blu Ray and DVDs perfectly. Able to read Blu Ray discs written 2009 and DVDs written 2001.

    A. · August 11, 2021

    Used for data back up for long-term storage and to read data stored years ago. It is doing a good job. Quiet when writing data at speeds of 6x and 12x. Can get noisy reading data at 24x - not a problem for me, but may become an issue for others.Front to back length is reduced compared to earlier Pioneer and LG drives. I expect this to have reduced durability compared to those, which were substantially heavier as well.
