Sony 12x SATA Black Blu-Ray Burner BD-5300S-0B - Bulk (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this version as an OEM, so it didn't come with any software or extra like a sata cable. I use this to back up my photos for photography because camera these days save at a higher file size and a dvd wasn't going to cut it anymore. The window vista built-in disc burner is too slow and you have to guess how much gb is left. There are free blu-ray software out there like cdburnerXP and Imgburn that works.
Sadly BD-r are slow with 4x beong common and 6x comes at a premium price. Also BD-r are not as cheap as dvd, so burning takes like an hour to complete and a coaster disc is a costly failure. I had no failure burn yet, but it is a relatively new for me. I use Ridata BD-r 4x and it works. If you are new to blu-ray, maybe get the retail version so you get the software to burn and play movie, which to me is worth it.

Sony BDU-X10S - Disk drive - BD-ROM - 2x - Serial ATA - internal - 5.25" Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While building myself a computer recently, I decided to install a Blu-Ray drive. I decided to go with Sony because of the amazing Blu-Ray output quality I have seen from my PS3. The BDU-X10S is a fantastic player; the biggest turn-on for me was the reasonable cost of the player. It does everything upscale home theater Blu-Ray players can do, but for much less. I am running this player on Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, and as with all Vistas, the media player does not read Blu-Ray. You will have to download software in order to view Blu-Ray discs; I am using WinDVD 9 ($99), and the setup has turned out to be phenomenal. If you are looking for a Blu-Ray player for your PC, the Sony BDU-X10S is the way to go.
Pros: awesome 1080p resolution we have come to expect from Sony, easy installation, reasonably priced, good warranty.
Cons: software required in order to view Blu-Ray movies.
