Revainrating 4 out of 5

Barely works as posted.

The thing isn't bad, but to be honest it's almost impossible to use in the form in which it's sold. First of all, my own usage will be slightly (perhaps very) different from most here. I chose 2 of them to speed up DVD data to disc transfer. Adding 2 DVD drives to 2 BRD drives makes it easy to transfer over 2000 movies/TV shows to disc. It just makes it faster. So that a few moments and notifications. #1: This MUST NOT connect a power cord to a PC, only a powered USB charging dock (read: no battery or portable charger). This will work fine (works for me) #2: Cables for this thing are supplied/sold, well there just aren't enough of them. Luckily, you can buy longer cables that will get the job done better. #3: This thing is a bit loud, but not as loud as I've seen some. BRD discs, around 4-5 m/s (when copying data from a disc). Only need realistic cables, unlike the ones supplied.

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Expensive
