Internal Blu-ray rewriter with eSATA and USB 2.0

The LG BH12LS35 is a new internal optical drive that reads Blu-ray discs at 12x and writes dual-layer BD-R media at up to 50 GB capacity. It also handles DVD and CD formats at 16x and 48x respectively, making it suitable for users who need broad disc compatibility in a desktop build.

Fits a standard 5.25-inch bay

The drive requires an available drive bay and either an eSATA or USB 2.0 header on the motherboard or add-in card. Its 4 MB buffer helps sustain write speeds during disc authoring, and LightScribe support lets you etch labels onto compatible media without a separate printer.

Replaces slower DVD-only writers

The jump is worthwhile when you need to store large backups or high-definition video on 50 GB dual-layer Blu-ray discs instead of multiple DVDs. It is not for systems without a 5.25-inch bay, for laptops, or for users who only need CD and DVD support.

Questions about this item

How much data can the BH12LS35 write to a dual-layer BD-R disc in one session?

The drive records up to 50GB of files, photos or business documents onto a single dual layer BD-R disc at 12X speed.

What is the maximum power draw or thermal output when the drive runs continuously at 12X Blu-ray or 16X DVD speeds?

Sustained operation at 12X BD-ROM or 16X DVD-ROM uses the standard 5 V and 12 V SATA power rails; the 4 MB buffer helps keep the mechanism running smoothly without extra cooling.

Which host interfaces must my computer already provide for the BH12LS35 to function?

The unit requires both an internal SATA data port and an eSATA or USB 2.0 connection for external use, plus a standard SATA power connector from the PSU.
