A great classic.
This is a very good drive and very easy to set up. Relatively quiet. It's a pity that the silk-screening is not more neat for a mediacenter PC front panel...

Replaces a LG of the same type which broke down (the drawer didn't open anymore, or randomly...). I love music on my old DVDs, Blue-Rays and CDs (that's all there is to it!), and having an optical drive is essential, even in 2021 and despite the dematerialization of everything. The proof is that even vinyls are coming back in force. I'm very pleased with the service and the quality of the product.
No worries about installing and using this DVD and Blu-ray player. It is not very noisy. To play the latter I have acquired a WindDVD 12 license, and so far no problems.
25GB in 11m 30s on poor quality BDs certified 6x recognized by the writer in 8x, perfect burning
Easy to install, recognized directly by Linux. Low noise (except the drawer drive when opening/closing) and fast, this drive is easy to use.
Used for backups (on Blu-ray), and playback. No problem, you can easily do something else while burning, the buffer never ran out.
