Review on Highly Versatile BUFFALO MediaStation 6X Portable BDXL Blu-Ray Writer with M-DISC Support (BRXL-PT6U2VB), Black - Unleash Your Digital Media Potential! by Matthias Foxx

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works well, cable could be better.

The drive came with a USB 2.0 cable with a second USB cable (for power only). Pulling the cable from the side reveals a full-size Micro USB 3.0 connector, which should provide both more power and speed for the computer. Although the cable is designed to be compact, it comes at the expense of speed and ease of connection to a computer since USB cables are very short (about 15cm). Once connected, the device works on Mac, Windows and Linux. You may want to use a longer USB 3 to USB 3 Micro cable, but keep the included cable for emergencies.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Big and bulky
