        Good Engraver

        I've already had one for 4 years, I use it to back up my photos and personal videos on BDR XL and to convert audio CDs to Flac, it works well but 2 or 3 times out of a hundred audio CDs that I converted to Flac it didn't detect the CD which was nevertheless clean and made a popping noise (hence one star less), after ejecting the CD and re-inserting it did detect. Delivery time a little longer than usual but it's the sales (Ordered Friday morning received Wednesday noon). This one is for my HTPC in the living room, I think I'll buy another one to have one on each PC. Comes in a box with 4 programs that I haven't installed (I already have everything I need to burn and play blurays). It's a shame that there's no longer a Bluck version which cost 10€ less.

        My experience with this product

        The blu-ray/dvd player function works very well. I've placed it in an external box and I've had no problems whatsoever.

        Very good quality for the moment!

        Correct, meets advertised standards!
        A first one bought a few years ago has been used intensively and perfectly.

        No problem

        I don't know what it's worth over time, but it does its job and quite well.

        It burns and plays Blu-ray without any problem.

        I'm not sure if it's a good one or not, but it's a good one, and I'm not sure if it's a good one.
        I have to use Power DVD if I want to be sure to play my Blu-Ray.

        Good, but!

        I bought this player with the intention of playing blurays, which it does perfectly. However, I was surprised to find that it plays CDs and DVDs very randomly, some pass, others don't, I found that other users had the same problem. Given the primary use of this player, I did not look for more than 15 minutes at the drivers, which are certainly the cause of this problem.
        That's why I give it a score of 4/5. Quiet, fast. The ASUS quality is there.

        Good drive and burner

        I took this product to be able to burn Blu-ray for my movies, despite a rather slow burning time this product works perfectly

        Quality player for the price

        This Asus player is not free but it is indeed flawless. It's not necessarily the quietest on the market but that's mainly because of its speed. For those of you who aren't out 20-30 euros, this is the player to get to make sure you don't have any problems.

        Very good player but without software

        This player works perfectly, it plays both DVDs and Blu-rays and is a real treat. The only small problem for the player is the bright blue light that flashes during playback, it catches the eye in the dark.

        ATTENTION: For the "Blu-ray news" you have to buy a software in addition to this player to play any Blu-ray. It's not like a CD or DVD (put it in the player and it works). Unfortunately it doesn't work like that. So if you buy a Blu-ray player in general, think that you will have to add roughly 100 euro for the purchase of a Blu-ray player software.... which is perfectly HONEST!!!

        Engraver

        I already had the same burner on an old computer. I use the same one on another computer. I am very satisfied (easy to assemble, read and burn without incident. I recommend this equipment.

        Single Blu-Ray player

        This ASUS player was very easy to install, everything comes with it. The sober design is a positive point. The drawer opens without too much noise but when playing a Blu-Ray it makes a lot of noise.
        For an entry-level device, the price is expensive but it is still one of the cheapest.
        Average playback speeds are around 35MB per second on my computer.

        Summary:

        + Sober design
        + Decent speed

        - Price
        - Noise when playing

        Perfect, but...

        I had a problem with the delivery of the parcel, I did not get my parcel on time because the parcel relay did not send a confirmation email that it had arrived.
        I'm very happy with the service.

        Effective product

        The playback works well (blu-ray or not) and without noise, I haven't tested the burning yet but I'm not worried about that.

        It's a good performer and does what it's supposed to do, I recommend this quality product!

        A good buy for nothing!

        Bought it to play, copy and burn Blu-ray, I was shocked when I realised that there was no Blu-ray software included to run it. Naive as I am, all software is not free and blu-ray technology is specifically designed to force us to pay for it quite often! It's installed in my tower, it duplicates the dvd burner, it's like going back to the days when you needed a player coupled with a cd burner. It's a good brand, reliable and solid. 2 stars less for the lack of playback software.

        Does its job

        Burns even old DVD-RWs that no longer fit in any other burner without any problems. Quite quiet.

        Warning: this is an OEM product, so no software is included. Free software allows you to fully exploit it
        (e.g.: ImgBurn for burning, VLC media player for DVD and BD playback - with libbluray).

        Works well

        I haven't tested the Blu-Ray burning yet but the optical drive works well.

        The data rates are obviously limited by the mechanics, but you can't ask the moon from an optical drive :)

        A good device

        A BluRay burner that does what you want it to do, burn and play. I have tried burning CDs, DVDs and B-Rs with data, music and video, CDs and DVDs playable on my home DVD player (Not having a home B-R player yet, I have not tested B-Rs).
        Some reviews of this device indicate a "light" quality of materials, I find that this one is well worth the other player-writers I have used so far; also the reported noise is non-existent.
        The minus is the price, which is still high...

        Can do better with noise

        Excellent product, just as the ASUS brand should be.
        Easy installation in my beQuiet! Silent Base 800.
        Instant installation on Windows 10.
        So, obviously, Cyberlink PowerDVD or other mandatory to deliver blurays.

        Only small flaw: always a murmur when playing the movie... can be annoying during the silent phases of a movie... Despite the soundproofing of my box. I thought that in 2016, the living room BR player could finally be replaced... Well no.

        Good product

        (note: only used for engraving, no reading)
        After a couple of weeks the burner works well, no difficulties encountered.
        The software is basic but does the job (backup essentially).
        The drive is not particularly noisy and does not heat up more than average.

        Owl engraver

        Not much to complain about with this burner. It works like a charm, is not noisy at all and as a bonus, there is 6 months of free Asus Web Storage in the box :D
        It also burns DVDs at 16x... which was not the case with my old burner which was also 16x.

        Meets my expectations

        I bought this drive to help me recover damaged DVDs. It didn't do any better than my old LG. It doesn't seem any more sensitive than any other. Otherwise it's all pretty much the same, I don't feel like one brand stands out from another. It's good stuff otherwise.

        impeccable

        installed in an ICY BOX IB-550StU3S
        (USB3 and E-sata)
        successful burning every time.
        This solution is not bad because you don't need a burner all the time.
        Bought it for backup on Blu-ray M-DISC ... 1000 year warranty (error rate of zero)
        For small backups on DVD-RAM ... 100 years warranty and rewritable 100 000 times.

        Mounted in a nice quality configuration, Asus Z170 deluxe, Asus turbo 970GTX, I7 6700K, DDR4 32GB, corsair 1000i platinium power supply. Good product.

        negative note: Noise level a bit high for a product of this category.

        Excellent

        Finally a Blueray burner. Windows 7 pro. I started to archive my photos that I will probably never look at! But it will save me from sorting out 62,000 photos I got back unnamed from the 2T FREECOM NAS that failed for no apparent reason after 7 years of loyal service.

        Very good reader/writer, but limited software

        I bought it as a replacement for a DVD player/writer that had given up the ghost, and I am completely satisfied with it. Silent, reactive, fast in reading, I only have to test it in writing. On the other hand, on the software side, it should be noted as indicated by others that the software provided by ASUS does not allow to read BluRays protected in AACS or BD+. To do this, you'll have to perform a few tricky manoeuvres (which don't work with all BluRays) or invest in proprietary (and not necessarily very efficient) software. So don't buy it as a substitute for a home player!

        I am copying another comment which for me is exactly the same thing
        This engraver is of high quality.
        The engraving is fast and without making waste.
        The playback: impeccable.
        CDs or computer DVDs, movies or music are played even when comparable drives fail.
        Blu-rays? A marvel.
        A complete success.
