Pros: Worked great, fast and quiet.

Cons: Completely quit reading discs in just under 2 years (got it for Christmas in 2012, stopped working Christmas Eve 2014). Very frustrating that I am already having to purchase a new drive. WIll not likely buy ASUS again due to premature failure. Was only used to rip 10-20 Blu-ray disks. Warranty should be better, (or at least build-quality should be better). WOuld give 4-5 stars if it hadnt failed, or was covered by warranty.
