5.0 out of 5 stars Affordable and compact
This works perfectly for ripping regular blu-ray movies into digital.I did experience an issue ripping with make MKV where the ripped movies had no sound.It does not read DVD, 4K disks, and 3D disks.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, small, durable and inexpensive
This combo drive is a beautiful, compact, external drive, that I use on a refurbished office system that was never configured for a DVD/CD drive of any kind. It was a simple USB port plug and play. I have taken the device from my Linux Mint machines to my Windows 10 Pro machines and it works flawlessly on all of them and plays both my blue-ray and DVD dics perfectly. I caught it on sale but even full price was reasonable for this.
1.0 out of 5 stars Save Your Money - Poor Quaility Inconsistent Operation
I am going to copy another user's review as I had identical experience with this product. I am writing this review roughly two years after purchasing with very lite usage from time to time. That being said here is what I and others have experienced:The phrase you get what you pay for comes to mind. This item routinely does not read DVDs and Blu-Rays. I’m not sure if it’s just got a lemon or if others have experienced this. At times I am unable to eject an inserted DVD. After a few more DVDs and computer restarts, I got the DVD back, but it just went downhill. Unfortunatly it is too late for me to return the item.
4.0 out of 5 stars drive is not region 1
OK buyer. the drive works, it rips BD and appears to burn things just fine too (ive only tried cd's so far) BUT, when attempting to rip a DVD it complains about being the wron region drive... it appears its a chinese region drive. it still works for everything else, but if you are expecting to rip dvds with this... skip it.
5.0 out of 5 stars Works great
I had an initial review where I rated this item lower because the first one I received had a defective tray that would not close therefore I had to send it back. I decided to take a risk and asked for a replacement unit. I'm sure happy I did as the replacement works perfectly. Shipping was super fast I got the replacement the next day. I am only using this unit to playback DVD and Bluray factory non-burned discs. I don't plan to burn or record. As far as reports from others of it not working or having a region issue I did not have a problem at all. I live in the US and have region 1 discs. I did however first install Power DVD 22 Ultra software (not included) which is basically a requirement so maybe that is why it worked so well. Of course, you can cheap out and get some freeware but I wouldn't do it in this case. I actually, was able to plug the player into my laptop USB port and used it to install the Power DVD software and everything worked perfectly. The drive is relatively quiet and I was able to play both standard DVDs and Blu-Ray discs. The only flaw is cord is short but that wasn't a big deal. I do have a Windows 10 OS so I can't say anything as to if this works with Windows 11. Other information: I believe the software is only good for one computer in other words you can't use it on two machines as far as I can tell. It would have been nice if I could install it on my desktop I would never actually use both instances at the same time just the laptop when I'm traveling and the desktop at home. If I'm wrong about this please correct me.
3.0 out of 5 stars This drive is NOT USB 3.0, CANNOT write Blue-Ray Discs, and more!
This product is only USB 2.0 capable making it very slow. It also draws currents on initial read that exceed the 900mA limit for USB 3.0 ports and when I tried to plug it in to a 2.0 (500mA) port it would not boot. After disassembling the unit I noticed that the actually drive unit says that it is a DVD/CD rewritable drive giving me the impression that it cannot write blue-rays. It has only a Blue-ray disc logo, nothing about Ultra HD giving me the impression that it does not support Ultra HD although I don't have a disc to test this. Lastly the chord is way too short. Other than that it can still do enough for me at the lowest price I could find. I recommend plugging this into a self powered USB 3.0 Hub for the power issues even though the 4 wire chord proves that it is only USB 2.0.
5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent
A great device, super power and is compatible with any codec and dvd/bd codes
2.0 out of 5 stars Worked after a lot of work - sort of
Serviceable, budget model for my laptop. Way too cheap for the price point. Plays most discs without problem. Burning was very hit or miss, with a few discs ending up with read errors (and having to be tossed.) Speeds were SLOW, and wasn't actually running USB 3.0 as advertised.I'd probably recommend paying more if you're looking to burn.Did NOT work on my system with Windows 11! Not sure if that was due to some other issue I couldn't figure out, but something to be aware of.Issues with the fact that this thing doesn't come with its own software or drivers.The instructions were decipherable, if full of grammatical errors and missed words, but they direct you to download software from a suggested list of 3rd parties.I was not familiar with them, and spent some quality time trying to research if they were safe, quality programs.Finally installed one, and then... no instructions on how to get the drive actually installed.I'd originally bought this because my job, inexplicably, gave me files I needed to extract off a Blu Ray disc, as if it's not uncommon for a laptop to not have a disc drive at all, let alone a Blu Ray, and I was really hoping I could just plug and play, pull the files and move on, but it took hours of fiddling with downloading and installing software to even get to the stage where my computer recognized the drive.I'll be honest - I'm not terrible with computers, but I still couldn't tell you how I eventually got this guy running.
Não atendeu o esperado.
Comprei este leitor de bluray para ler um bluray comprado nos EUA, de uma peça de teatro lindissima japonesa. Como havia muitas avaliações escritas nos EUA, pensei que atenderia minha necessidade. Que tristeza! O bluray americano não é compativel com este aparelho. O problema maior é que trouxe para a Europa, onde moro, e agora não posso devolver.
its pretty stright forward
for downloading music
not win 10 or 11 compatible
This is not win 11 compatible at all. Win 11 will not even recognize the drive. I spent 1 1/2 days on the net tried to find driver but could not. Finally deiced to return it
The seller is ok but the player is crap. And it needs a download.
Maybe DON'T DO WHAT I DID and buy this Blu-Ray DVD "player."
