Will this make a recovery image on a BluRay disc?

It should. The type of recovery media you burn generally doesn't matter, so long as it has sufficient space and doesn't require any special formatting. BR discs are just like DVDs in the way the system handles them.

I'm sorry that I can't provide an answer for you. I have abandoned Norton Ghost. Although Symantec usually has great products like Norton 360 and Norton Security Suite, I can't say the same for Ghost. I have had nothing but trouble with it and have switched my backup program to Acronis 2013. Acronis is also not the easiest to manage, particularly when a recovery becomes necessary. However, I found it to be better that Ghost even though Acronis is seriously deficient in documentation. Hope this helps.

If you format your Blue Ray disc to a data format, it should hold the image. Not sure about the recovery process. As a 15 year user of Ghost I was totally disappointed that they decided to not make Ghost work with any form of Window 8. So, it sounds like Nortons commitment to small business and end user backup will not last as users eventually upgrade to Win8 or later OS versions.

Not as far as I can tell. I've dumped my entire bluray collection to 2 5TB drives using MakeMKV where I preserve all the tracks without reencoding or anything like that. I haven't had any trouble whatsoever playing anything even known Cinavia protected movies like Amazing Spider-ManI don't think you have anything to worry about. Cinavia is only a requirement for BluRay players and since this doesn't have a BluRay drive you're in good shape

It will as long as you use blank bd discs that hold the volume of the blu-ray disc your trying to copy. Many blu-ray discs have more than 25 gb, so you will need bd blanks that hold up to 50 gb, and they are pricey !

When you copy JPEG files to the disc, does it rename the image files like in the older model?

Absolutely! Not that I'm encouraging illegal activity, but, if you have a DVD decrypter, you can save a copyrighted DVD to disc (via the decrypter) and import it into VS using the import wizard (just remember to look for the saved/decrypted folder, not a disc in a drive).

yes, it might not read a blu-ray till the drivers are fully installed, but it will read a DVD install disk

It depends upon what type of Maxell DL discs you have. It won't work on the BD (Blu-Ray) discs.

I would say yes. i got a pack of 2 dvd-r disks at the 99cts. store to experiment. it worked. Try it, that's how you find stuff out. dvd-rw - yes

Windows should recognize the drive. Contact manufacturer. You might have a faulty drive or your blu-ray software might not be compatible.

As far as I know my drive is NOT blueray. It is labeled as 3D capable so I asume that is in DVD mode. One sure way of determining if the drive is Blue Ray is to check the drive door for the Blue Ray symbol. A "b" with a backward "C" underlined with the words "Bluray".

You use Verbatim discs and the program is Imgburn, that's all you need. with the stealth patcher as well. (abgx)

The MSI hard drive has a pre-installed program for creating a recovery disk. It lets you make one copy of the disk image. If you don't have a USB dvd drive handy, it will create the image to your hard drive so that you can write it to a dvd later. I made mine, and it worked well.

I don't see any reason why not, assuming you have the proper drivers for the bluray.

It will burn the media onto the disc, but it won't burn the images on the light scribe portion. Hope that helps.

Yes it does. You make the discs yourself, the computer guides you. As well as other recovery options.

The DVD could be burned as a data disc. It would not be playable on a DVD console player unless it can read and play back native JPG or AVI files.
