Great Device on my review.

I have regularly used the Pawtec External USB 3.0 optical drive for two months now. It does everything that it was advertised to do, and it does it well. It is fast, needs only one USB bus of my computer to work, it plays and records CDs and DVDs, and it worked the very first time I plugged it in. I have had no reason to burn a Blu-Ray disk, but I'm confident that my Pawtec optical drive is up to that task. I highly recommend this device.Norm NielsenSeattle, WA

Pros

Unreliable for my opinion

Many Blu-Ray disk writes fail (about 2 out of 3), for unknown reasons. I have tried many different disks - Verbatim, Philips, TDK, 25G, 50G. These disks are to expensive to waste in this way, so the drive is heading to the landfill.The drive does not work with Windows 7 native DVD writing (does not appear to handle the larger size) so I use Roxio.

Pros
  • Works as advertised.
Cons
  • The external USB cord that comes with this device is shorter than other similar products, limiting where it can be placed

This burner did not work at all

The burner was recognized by Windows 10. However, I could not get the burner to recognize the inserted blank discs most of the time. Occasionally it would recognize a disc, at least for a while, but then the burning would fail. The burning would fail even for DVDs. After wasting a few blank discs, I decided to return it.

Pros
  • Works great... Easy to use... Fantastic picture.
Cons
  • The Pawtec External USB 3.0 Aluminum 6X BDXL 3D Blu-Ray Writer/Burner - Black does not come with any included software

works as described: my feedback

I have PC laptop. This unit works as described by manufacturer. Very easy, just plug and use. Small, somewhat short cable, takes USB.

Pros
  • Great product, as advertised
Cons
  • The instruction manual that comes with this product is not well-written and difficult to understand
