This Blu-ray player is the only way to watch Blu-ray and dvds movies on most laptops that do not come with dvd drives now . I have a Alienware laptop that streams movies very well but I like to watch the new releases and those are on disk so this drive is good for that . I had no trouble getting this drive up and running in a very short time works well with the supplied software .

This external USB 3 DVD player is supposed to be about the fastest you can buy as of 2015. It's supposed to be able to play Blue-ray movies. And maybe when it was first produced a few years ago that was accurate. Unfortunately there are a few realities. You must install software / codecs in order to play the Blu-ray and in the new world of Win10, the Cyberlink (sic) version 10 software provided doesn't work (for playing Blu-ray) and you have to pay almost $100 for the version that does. ALSO while I admit I am accustomed to the speed of built in optical devices, if this is the fastest external around then I'm very disappointed with the entire optical industry. There is a lot of latency installing anything from this drive and I'm a realist - if I return it for something else I do not expect to find a better product.Read full review

Reading/Burning - Haven't had any issues whatsoever, plays any DVD I've thrown at it, haven't tested the burning as I rarely need to burn DVD's. Blu-Ray DVD also works fine. Design - Small compact design and with the "clam shell" style lid there's no flimsy tray that is abundantly common with portable/USB drives. Durability - I wish the lid felt a little stronger, I dunno how it would hold up in a drop but the drive itself feels rather light and solid while maintaining a minimalist design that will easily fit in with most setups. It's expensive, but if you want the best you go with Pioneer.

CD, DVD & BLU-RAY - READ & BURN. Works well. Quite. Compact. Seamless software. Protective case with room for disks & accessory cables is a real bonus. This is my second one: as most laptops no longer have on-board expandable memory, this comes in handy when the kids want to watch a movie and I have business needs for the 1st one. Worth every penny!.
