Watch 3D Blu-ray movies, or archive your data, with the Pioneer BDR-XD05S 6X External USB 3.0 BD/DVD/CD Burner. It supports almost all read-only, write-once, and rewritable media of BDXL/BD/CD/DVD formats, and is one of the world's smallest and lightest BD portable burners supporting BDXL. Support for 128GB Quad-Layer BDXL media means you can store libraries of music, photos, and footages on a single disc. Up to 6x speed for BD-R and BD-R DL media also makes it one of the fastest BD burners on the market.
In addition to excellent performance, the BDR-XD05S features an array of exclusive technology for optimized experience in everyday use. PowerRead can provide smoother movie playback when a disc has fingerprints or minor surface scratches. Auto Quiet mode intelligently adjusts the disc rotation speed to reduce noise (useful while watching movies or listening to music), and PureRead automatically adjusts the drive parameters to minimize sound glitches during music playback. Auto Quiet mode and PureRead can be configured, as well as enabled and disabled, with the Pioneer BDR-XD05S Drive Utility. Plus, this burner comes with a stylish sliver color, making it a great choice for Macbooks or sliver-toned Ultrabooks.

Scratches, fingerprints and other abnormalities on the surface of a disc can sometimes cause Blu-ray and DVD movie playback to stop. When a PowerRead enabled drive is not able to read through obstructed areas of a disc, it will attempt to quickly move forward to the next available data point, resulting in smoother Blu-ray and DVD movie playback*.
* PowerRead is not guaranteed to work with all disc conditions or under all PC environments.
Scratches and fingerprints on your CDs can cause them to skip. A drive normally makes a calculated guess at the unreadable data and attempts to correct this to match the original music. However this is not 100% accurate. PureRead, when enabled, makes the drive reread the obscured data to extract the original music as accurately as possible*.
