Blueray Drive 16x Writing Spd

Q: Can you just play Blue Ray movies in it?

Long reply ahead, but this is useful information for anyone new to Blu Ray on PC. Unlike DVD and CD before it, Blu-ray is built with some pretty hefty encryption designed to stop piracy. To (legally) decrypt Blu-ray movies, a programmer needs to pay exorbitant fees to Sony. Cyberlink and various other companies pay this fee, and ironically, Microsoft has to pay it for every XBox One they make. So, every Blu-ray drive for PC has to make a choice: bundle a copy of some program that owns a Blu-ray license, or just deal with only being a backup solution for a small price decrease. No Blu-ray drive is going to play Blu-ray movies out of the box. You can spend $20 or $200+, but you still need licensed software to play the movies. Unfortunately, the best choice right now is Cyberlink and their PowerDVD. Alternatively, they're *are* programs out there that let you simply copy or rip the Blu-ray, but those are of questionable legality and usually require an expensive ($100+ per year) subscription. If all you're after is something to play movies, I really just recommend a $60 4k Blu-ray player or a PS4/XBox One. PowerDVD runs $60 here in Amazon, so you'd be paying the same for a physical device as you would a piece of code.

Q: Does it work with windows 10

Th good news is that it works fine with Win10 and Win10 Pro. The bad news is that it is mechanically a very odd machine and difficult to use. The strange-shaped on-off switch on the back is hard to use and inconvenient. The front right corner "button" that opens-closes the disc tray is very hard to see & use, works sometimes, other times only with great difficulty. Very peculiar designed machine, and I have relegated it to a distant, seldom used #3 of my 3 Blu-ray recorder-players.

Q: Is this LibreDrive compatible?

Hello! Yes this Blu ray Burner Drive is compatible! I have been using it quite a bit with my Acer laptop which has MS Windows 7 Ultimate installed. At least one 3.0 Usb port OR higher is required to use the burner. The manufacturer/company is truthful about the specifications and details involved with this burner. I have used it to burn Cds, Dvds and Blu ray 25 Gig BD-R discs. I have not had any problems with this burner drive thus far and I have been using it regularly since about July-2019. Note: Do not attempt to burn any "Audio Music Cds" using speeds higher than 16x because you may get a brief "skip" on one of your Cd tracks. For burning data-only Cds and Dvds you maybe able to select higher speeds like 32x with the burning software and not have to worry too much about data integrity problems. For optimum quality use the 16x or lower rating on all disc types! *Note: There is NO support for being upward compatible with 4K-UHD burning software or 4K-UHD discs. It is highly recommended that you have MS Media Player/Media Center Version 10 or higher installed but other blu ray player media software will work just as good. *The software that comes with the burner is capable of performing most tasks but for some features I would suggest downloading another blu ray burner software program like "Burn Aware" or etc. *I do like the overall design of the burner but it would be helpful to have a more distinguishable "Open/Close Disc Tray button" with a color like light blue, yellow or orange. The whole front face plate is one solid color and makes the open/close tray-button harder to see-distinguish. I hope this information is helpful.

Q: Does this play all 3D blu ray discs?

I don't know about ALL 3D blu ray discs, but I was able to play The Avengers 3D blu ray disc with no issues.
