Blu-Ray Player Laptop External USB DVD RW Burner Drive

On Saturday, I received this drive, which I immediately connected to my media server and began using to rip Blu-ray discs. I got through five discs (one after the other) before I started having problems with the server's hard drive. The drive indicated that there was no disc present after inserting the sixth disc! I attempted to eject the disc (using the program's eject function), but the drive refused to open! The disc did not eject when I pressed the eject button on the front of the drive, but it did spin and the program finally recognized it! The sixth disc was ripped, ejected, and the seventh disc was inserted. The drive said there was no disc in the drive once more! There was no way to get the drive to read or eject the disc this time, no matter how much fiddling I tried! I unplugged both USB cables from the drive, restarted the server, and then reconnected them. I was finally able to eject the disc after plugging in the drive's USB cables. I spent the night there (while only being slightly behind!). )br>br>Tried the drive the next day, and got the same 'no disc present' drama as before! I took my disc out of the drive, disconnected it, and then reconnected it. I packed it up and sent it back to Amazon, where I had already placed an order for a more expensive item.

I bought it as a back-up for my Blu-ray collection. As part of my recent "put all my DVDs, etc. into iTunes project," I've been playing Blu-ray discs on my Mac. These are the drive specs, according to System Info: br>br> PIONEER BD- PIONEER BD- PIONEER BD- PIONEER BD- PIONEER BD- PI ROM BDC- TD03: br>br> br> br> br> br> br> br> br> Burn Support: Yes (Generic Drive Support)br> Profile Path: 00br> Interconnect: USBbr> Interconnect: USBbr> Interconnect: USBbr> Interconnect: USBbr> Interconnect: USBbr> Interconnect: USBbr> Interconnect: USBbr> Cache: Nonebr> Nonebr> Nonebr> Nonebr> Nonebr> Reads DVD: 4000 KBbr> Yesbr> CD-ROM-ROM-ROM-ROM-ROM-ROM-ROM-ROM Write: - R, - RWbr> DVD-RW-RW-RW-RW-RW-R Write: - R, - R DL, - RAM, - RW, R, R DL, RWbr> Write Strategies: RW, R, R DL, RWbr> CD- TAO, CD- SAO, CD- Raw, DVD- DAObr>br>From what I've heard, the company appears to take any model 2x drive and put it in a case. So you never know what you're going to get. br>br>So far, I've come to the following conclusions:

- When using a standard 500 mA USB 2, the extra power cable is not required. 0 is the connector number.
- When the second power cable is connected, it appears to do nothing, despite the fact that it may be required to burn DVDs? I will look into it. (Update: Burning discs is not required. )
- Blu-ray discs are read by the drive. More than 2x ray discs I'm displaying a 14 for a long time. 4 megabytes per second (MB/s) (also known as 3. 3 times) during rips
- Case made of low-cost plastic.
- On mine, the front LED does not appear to work at all; I'm not sure if it's because the case has an opening for one and the drive doesn't have one or if it's because it's broken. This is unaffected by the addition of a second power cord.
- It includes a Windows driver CD that has been burned.
- Toast 11 on Mac OS X works flawlessly. There are no drivers, etc. , and this is clearly only intended to be used as a data drive. Without ripping videos with MakeMKV, you won't be able to watch them. But I'm sure you already knew. UPDATED: br>br>Dbr>br>UPDATE: br>br>Dbr I've had the drive for a few months and it no longer appears to be able to read CDs or DVDs (Blu-ray). Blu-ray discs appear to be in good working order, albeit with a few read errors - However, those discs are most likely Netflix's). I docked it a star because it'll most likely perish soon. Has anyone else experienced this issue with CDs or DVDs? After a few seconds, it simply ejects the disc. My drive is supposed to come with a one-year warranty from Pioneer, but since it's an OEM drive, it's up to the reseller. Yeah, I'm thinking of getting a new hard drive when this one dies completely - A burner, perhaps?.

I'm really enjoying it now. So there you have it. I placed an order for this Blu-ray. Because my Asus G74sx lacked a Blu-ray drive and I wanted to watch Blu-ray movies, I purchased one. So, I ordered this drive, and it arrived within a week to a week and a half of ordering it. But now comes the bad part. There is no Blu-ray player software included with the drive! Also, if you connect it to your computer and insert a Blu-ray disc, it will not play. So, here's how you can make this drive play Blu-ray discs. Ray's requires the installation of two free software programs on your computer. Because it took me so long to locate these programs, I am only now writing this review. DVDFab Passkey 8 and VSO media player are the two programs that you'll need. To get started, download and run DVDFab Passkey 8, then select lite (free) as your option and press the start dvdfab pass key button. Now, go into this program's settings and click the general tab if you don't want this message to appear every time you start your computer. Then uncheck the box labeled "show welcome dialog. " Step 1 is now complete with the click of the OK button. The second step is to download and install VSO media player. The second step has been completed. Now all you need to do is run VSO media player while dvdfab passkey is running in the background. Play your Blu-ray movie by inserting it into the disc drive. )br>br>In addition, here are links to where you can legally and for free download both programs.
