Customer Review

Major Upgrade to Blu-Ray Recording Options.
By D. Avery, (Washington DC USA) - November 28, 2007

I purchased this item earlier this month and installed it in an external SATA case (which I had to jerry-rig because 5.25″ eSATA enclosures aren’t generally available yet). I have been VERY pleased with its performance! I’ve used it with both my PC (4G RAM, Athlon processor, Gigabyte motherboard) running XP Pro (SP2)and with my dual-G5 PowerMac. So far I haven’t burned any BD disks (that will come when I get material that requires it), but the drive has performed flawlessly in burning (and reading) DVD’s and CD’s.

I’m not sure why Sony decided to make this a SATA drive instead of a standard ATA/IDE drive, as other DVD and BD recorders have been. Perhaps it was necessary to improve its speed on BD recording over 1st generation burners, but in the short run it limits the machines that can accommodate it. Be that as it may, the competitive price and improved performance (especially on DVD and CD recording) compared to other BD recorders makes this a great investment.[...]
