Review on πŸ“€ ASUS SBW-06D5H-U BOX Optical Drive: Unleash Seamless Optical Media Experience by Gagaan Pahal ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I like everything, the quality is good and the price is reasonable.

Very disappointing was the lack of reading 4K discs. The manufacturer does not indicate this information ANYWHERE, as a result, all online stores also omit this moment. Surprisingly, everywhere there is a read and write speed, but the supported formats were modestly kept silent. In fact, the alternatives to external drives that support Blu-Ray Ultra HD are not great: Verbatim Blu-ray Ultra HD 4K Slimline USB USB 3.1 (not officially sold in 2022) Pioneer BDR-XS07B-UHD (not officially sold in 2022) In terms of reproducing a high-quality picture, you should not expect a miracle, this is not a Hi-End player for 100k. As a mobile solution suitable for your tasks.

Pros
  • Compact Rubber feet (fits tightly on the table, does not slip) 2 sets of cables included Does not require installation of additional software and drivers, everything works out of the box (tested under Windows 10) High read and write speeds for a compact device Requires no additional power when connected via USB Type-C or USB 3.0 Type-A
Cons
  • NO support for reading Blu-Ray Ultra HD (4K)! Requires a USB Type-A + USB 2.0 Y cable for additional power when recording if connected to a laptop with USB 2.0 ports (cable included). When connected to an active hub, only USB 3.0 is enough Noisy
