good, portable, fast, powerful, Expensive. These are all the things I look for in a Blu Ray Read Writer, However one of the criteria was not fulfilled which was expensive, but that doesn't matter anyway. This drive plays anything, DVDs, CDs, CD ROMs, DVD ROMs, HD DVD, Blu Ray, BDXLs. It doesn't even matter if it is regionless, it will just play it anyway. The only disadvantage of this little thing is that it eats up 2 USB 2.0 Ports on my computer, but then again, what do you expect if you have to supply both power and Data to a computer thing with Servos in it. Overall ----> GOOD
