> 3 dayI need to rescind my previous 1-star review on this ASUS BW-16D1X-U 16x External Blu-ray BDXL Drive. I was hasty in filing my review before doing more extensive trouble shooting. I connected this drive to another computer and it works just fine. It turns out that the Dell PC, into which it was connected, is having some kind of issue. Im contacting Dell Tech Support today and Ill let them trouble shoot this problem. My apologies to ASUS and to everyone who did NOT purchase this drive based off of my incorrect assessment of the issue. I WOULD purchase this again.

> 3 dayInadequate documentation and technical support. Did not work out of the box. Returned. Perhaps I could have figured it out after spending many more hours - but even finding basic support information was enormously time-consuming and frustrating.

Greater than one weekThis Blu Ray drive should have been rated 4 Stars. It is very well designed and built. It works well. I reduced the rating from 5 stars to 4 because the top surface is not flat. Therefore, most items can NOT be placed on the top. I further reduced the rating because the description is either misleading or a flagrant lie. This unit is incapable of playing Blu Ray DVDs on a Mac. I spent a frustrating hour on the phone with Asus Customer Support to no avail. The Asus website asks for the operating system being used with this drive, and the ONLY choices appearing on their pick list are Windows. I returned thus Asus drive to Amazon.

> 3 dayI can see people are confused how disc burners works in 2020, so let me explain. There is a ton of illegal piracy out there, so in 2012 there was both a law and a patent out there that states that all disc burners must be required to use firmware that prevents users of just making endless copies of movies ect., so in 2020 on a PC you can only burn media files or data onto a disc, you cannot directly copy media directly from a disc, nor can you use drives to watch movies on your computer because of the legality of pirate of just screen capturing. It can be done, but its through illegal 3rd party means

> 3 dayThis is called a Turbo drive. The only turbo about this drive is the noise it makes. I sounds as if it is a jet plane but in reality is trying to work which it doesnt accomplish. It barely recognizes a 50 Gig disk and has trouble handling them. Dont even think about a 100 Gig. that it is advertised to use. It constantly hangs up and has to be unplugged from power to reset. I am about to throw it in the trash. PS It has been over a year now since I purchased this drive so I cant return it. Sadly I dont use it too often and I let time slip away. But to the trash it goes.

> 3 dayIt works like advertised. This is a basic external DVD drive. It is aesthetically appealing as well.

06-06-2025El producto llegó a Perú en menos tiempo de lo esperado, muy bien empacado, y funciona al 100%, es robusto y a pesar que grabé 35 discos en los primeros días, se portó de maravilla. No tengo ni una queja, excelente producto.

Greater than one weekThis seems like a sound Blu-ray drive and I do like it. Software must be purchased in order to play Blu-ray discs on the PC. PowerDVD is an example of the software needed.
