BUFFALOMediaStation 6X Portable Type-C USB 3.2 (Gen 1) Blu-ray Drive/External, Plays and Burns Blu-Rays, DVDs, and CDs. Compatible with PC/Mac Laptops and Desktops.

No setup, works right out of the box, and no complaints. Of course you need software depending on what you use it for but it's basically just plug and play. Highly recommend and would buy again.

I was looking for a DVD player burner in June. I had to decide if I needed Blueray capability or not. I read the specs on some lower-priced DVD players and decided to go to one of them. That burner was flimsy, and the performance didn't match the listed specs. I bit the bullet and ordered this unit. It comes with a complete software package. I am ready for the latest technology. The brand has an excellent reputation. I'm happy to say that this device works great. It is fast, quiet and full-featured. I wish I had skipped the cheap one and bought this the first time.

Got this for my husband for his computer. He says it works good now that he got it running. Instructions were not great but he finally figured it out.

htiWExpected software to be preinstalled and plug and play.Boy was I wrong, the only directions that are included is a link to Cyberlink to download software.But first you need to set up an account with them. After doing that, then you have to find the file to download. Not very user friendly.After spending a few hours, I finally got it to work. Then I find the software is only for ONE computer!I am unable to share the drive with other computers in my household unless I buy a copy of software for each computer along with seperate email accounts!Also the drive uses two proprietary USB-A cables to connect to computer along with a USB A to C adapter. Good luck if you lose one cable...Software runs OK so far playing a DVD.PART 2 - 30 days laterJust did a Windowd update. Now it says UNABLE TO FIND DRIVER! Unit broken now unable to play DVDs. Have to go throigh setup all over now! I'm past the return window, POS, DON'T BUY!!!

Arrived quickly, works really well. Great drive for computers without drives installed.

I have used this drive for two projects. It could not read the first disc but another PC drive was able to read it. The opposite was true for my second DVD. It is easy to hook up and is small enough to carry with the laptop.

I bought this because it wasn't just some random, white label junk made in china. I wanted a reputable name from a reputable manufacturer and I thought this would do. It worked great for a few months, then the audio stopped working during playback. I've tried six different apps and four different blueray discs, and standard dvds. None of them work anymore. Audio cds work, tho.I've updated all drivers and rebooted my computer multiple times, and even tried it on another computer.Support? The forum/knowledge base has nothing even closely related. Phone? No answer.I'd feel better about throwing it out if it was one of those cheap Chinese knockoffs that are practically disposable.Avoid.

Works fine for watching videos on laptop.
