How is this for burning Blu-Rays to back up your computer on Windows 7? I have a 12x NEC UBS-3.0 blu-ray burner and want to burn non-coasters.Thanks.

Hello John Barry, I work for Nero and saw your question about burning Blu-ray discs with your NEC recorder drive. Nero 2014 Platinum fully supports your recorder drive. Feel free to download and test our free trial version first in order to find out if the program fully fits your purposes. http://www.nero.com/eng/products/nero/free-trial-download.php Thanks and best regards, Eduardo

This one doesnt come with any software, however i recommend powerdvd from cyberlink. Its the best software for blu ray playback ATM. As far as burnable discs, i recommend either optical quantum or memorex from newegg.com. Cyberlink power2go is a good burning program.

It obviously does have a buffer, but nowhere does the documentation say how big. Modern burn software (I use Roxio) uses raw buffers in your PC's memory to prevent underrun. They will buffer from the source into the bits that go onto an addressable part of the BluRay (i. e. a full track). That way, if there is some delay in the source data, you don't ruin the BluRay media. It will, however, slow down the burn. As a practical matter, I never get anywhere near the full rated burn speeds when I do file backups with compression.

I have not had any problems with them at all. Most of the problems that I have are with the program that you are using to burn with. Windows is not good for burning for me. There are faster & easier programs to use if you just search, of course, it's a tedious task. For under 2 hours I use a program called Converter Lite, but have not had really good luck with the programs above 2 hours. Sometimes, this program will go above 2 hours but not very often.....

I installed this in Win 7 SP1 with no issues. It didn't come with any software as a bare bones drive. If your having issues, the I would suggest going to the lightscribe web site and download the latest drivers for your OS if your having lightscribe burning issues. I didn't need any blu-ray software either.

I use powerDVD for my blu Ray player or you can spend more upgrading the software that comes with it (witch is only good for burning DVD and blue ray data disk) . For the money I recommend powerDVD its the best by far and don't let the name fool you it plays back blu ray too. I use if for 3d blu ray play back on my media center. Hope that helps. You got a great drive, put the now get the software and you will not be disappointed.

Hi, the DIG-79112 you are looking at only comes with REWIND Archiving software, allowing you to permanently archive your digital assets to scratch resistant Blu-ray disc on your PC or your Mac. If you'd like more multimedia functionality like burning home movies to Blu-ray video disc on your Windows PC, then you will want the DIG-79102 bundle which comes with REWIND and ArcSoft TotalMedia Extreme 2.0. ArcSoft's multimedia bundle will allow you to burn home videos to Blu-ray disc in a video format for playback on your standalone BD player hooked up to your TV. Feel free to reach out to us with any other questions! Thanks, The DIGISTOR Support Team www.digistor.com/support

No, this drive will not support BDXL burning. You will need to find certain other Pioneer blu ray drives that can support that.

I use on Windows 8 only for burning cd top. To slow for use with burning images. Comes with two usb ports to be plugged in.

I found online that it supports OS X 10.6 and up. I am not familiar with OS X in general so I can't fully commit and say it will be easy to use. Many users are claiming it to be hard to find a good program for burning the data. Apple has never endorsed Blu-Ray so this shouldn't be surprising. I would check some forums before committing to a purchase, but I must say its a great BD burner.

I have been using DIGISTOR BD-R White printable discs (25GB). I have burned videos on about 35 discs & have not had a failure to date. Interesting enough, Digistor brand was the least expensive Blu-ray disc at the time of my purchase. Hope this helps.

This device will not burn BD-Rom. It will burn DVD/CD and I have have not had any issues reading Blue Ray discs. Hope this helps to answers your question. Also a link to the Asus Website https://www.asus.com/Optical_Drives/BC12B1ST/#overview

Yes. I got this drive specifically for dual layer Blu-Ray discs. I have now burned several single and dual layer discs with verify turned on and have had a 100% success rate!

HELLO, Directly, I'm not sure, as so far, I've used it on computers with either Windows XP or Windows 7. In the case of Windows 7, I used the Cyberlink Blu-ray Suite that came with the Rewriter. In the case of Windows XP, it was used with a third-party (free) disc burning software. In both cases, it served my purposes with regard to writing to BD-Discs (I used them for backup images of my Windows OS's).Actually, both computers are "dual-boot" - either to Windows (XP/7) or to Linux/Ubuntu. So far, I've not tried it out in Linux.Hope this is helpful.

I didn't get any. Windows 7 and 8 have built in burning capability. If I need to make an image or copy a disc, I use an old copy of Nero that came with one of my other burners.

According to the link below, it will not burn blu rays. You can rip them to your computer, but not rewrite to disc. http://burners.burn4free.com/hewlett-packard/hp-bc-5501h.htm
