Pioneer Black 12X BD-R 2X BD-RE 16X DVD+R 5X DVD-RAM 10X BD-ROM 4MB Cache SATA Blu-ray Burner With BDXL Support BDR-2207

Pros: Not much to say here, it is fast, quiet, and doesn't burn coasters as so many other BD burners do. It also comes with power DVD BLU RAY playback software, this is very important because the software alone generally costs around 70$. Without it you can't watch BR's from your drive.

Cons: Can't think of any. Price is a little high, but considering it comes with PowerDVD 10 I think the price is very justified. Most BR burners do not include it.

Overall Review: Great drive overall, very pleased with it.

Pros: Installed without a hitch and have already burned 10 Blu ray discs. So far I am very pleased with this drive.

Cons: It's a little pricey.

Overall Review: I finally upgraded to a blue ray burner as an alternative to getting a new hard drive. Most of the HDDs on the market now that are 1TB and larger don't last any more than 2 years max (if that). I would rather protect my data on a format that doesn't have to depend on hardware longevity.

Pros: Very quiet, good performance, excellent burn quality. BDR-2207 Retail kit comes with BD playback software.

Cons: none so far!

Overall Review: My previous burner was a Sony Optiarc BD-5300s. It started out with perfect burn quality and good performance. Less than a year after purchasing the Sony Optiarc, the burn quality slowly went down to the point where DVDs and Blu-rays were not playable in set top boxes. I have a Sony BWU-200S from 2007 that still burns DVDs & BDs with excellent burn quality. FYI, I'm running quality scans with Nero DiscSpeed.

Pros: Wide media support (including BDXL) Quiet! Fast media detection Advanced features like Pure Read Will play Blu-ray 3D disc (must have other 3D hardware also) Nice Cyberlink software included

Cons: No LightScribe

Overall Review: I have burned many Blu-ray/DVD disc without a problem. This drive starts to read disc so much faster than my older DVD-RW, and it is so quiet even when reading a data CD at 40x. The light scribe is not a big deal; I have second drive that does that.

Pros: Bundled Software - Hard to beat free DVD/BluRay Player Fast burner - No coasters for either BD or DVD - Total of 10 DVD, 1 BD 25Gig Quiet

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: Was worried with what problems other reviewers were having, but haven't had or seen any problems yet.

Pros: EXCELLENT bundled software - CyberLink Media Suite goes for about the same price as the drive (so is essentially free) but is so much better than Nero or Roxio which are garbage Handles ANY format you can throw at it fast ... enough and fairly quiet

Cons: boring styling - I installed this in a clear case and it is the least aesthetic object, even the PSU cables look more appealing so I put stickers on it. How about different color faceplates or something

Overall Review: With drives slowly becoming obsolete, the selection is not that broad but this manages to adequately handle any format thrown at it. When playing blurays it will not be whisper quiet but if that was a requirement you oughta get a PS3 or bluray player

Pros: Not a hitch. Was a little worried about buying a BDR drive after reading all the reports of incompatibility and bad burns. Have burned over 30 blu-ray and many DVD disks and not one coaster so far. Also comes with Power DVD software which evens out the price of the drive.

Cons: A little pricey but when you figure in the software it is a great deal.

Overall Review: I would not hesitate to recommend it to a friend.

Pros: COLOR matches case

Cons: This drive only reads 30% of my Blu-Ray disc's & I own around 200 of them. I have older LG & LITEON Blu-Ray Drives that READ THEM ALL with no problem. All of my Blu-Ray Disc's are in 100% BRAN NEW condition with NO fingerprints on them

Overall Review: DO NOT BUY PIONEER I'm WARNING YOU. By an LG or LITEON product instead.
