LG Blu-ray DVD Burner USB 2.0

This LG external burner writes Blu-ray discs at 6X, DVD±R at 8X and CDs at 24X. It connects through USB 2.0 and includes Cyberlink software plus a USB cable for power and data. The tray-load mechanism reads and writes BD-XL, M-DISC, DVD±RW, DVD-RAM and CD-RW media. A 4 MB buffer helps prevent buffer under-runs during recording.

Suits users wanting portable disc archiving

Buyers who need faster write speeds or an internal SATA drive should consider other options. The USB 2.0 interface limits sustained throughput compared to newer USB standards. Systems without a free USB port or those requiring bus-powered operation above the port limit may face connectivity issues.

6X Blu-ray write speed decides fit

The maximum BD-R write rate is 6X, which determines how quickly large backups or video projects finish. DVD±R reaches 8X and CD-R reaches 24X for legacy media. Choose this drive if those speeds meet your archiving or playback requirements.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the version with M-DISC support or the one without it?

This model includes M-DISC support as standard, so there is no separate version to choose between.

What does the 6x BD-R speed mean when I am actually burning a disc?

The drive writes a single-layer 25 GB Blu-ray disc at its maximum 6x rate, which takes roughly 16 minutes under ideal conditions.

Is the USB 2.0 connection fast enough for the drive's top speeds?

Yes, the USB 2.0 interface provides ample bandwidth for the 6x BD-R and 8x DVD write rates without bottlenecking.
