Not sure my question went through? Does the (BDR-209DBK) support Blue-Ray Re-Writeable Disks.If so, has anyone done this &amp; what were the end results?

I've got one that has gone into this same problem as described: Just cycles through one disk after another saying 'cant read this disk' Has anyone found a solution for this? Blue SA-CD and Multichannel lights are on. Will not even recognize standard store bought DVD's currently.

Premsysl B., I'm having the same exact issues. It worked the first time I plugged it in but the system won't allow me to access and files on a blue-ray disk any longer. There seems to be no driver available for it to match Win 8. I used it several times in Win 7 and now that system won't recognize it either. I'm thinking the unit has a flaw of some kind. Too bad Rosewill, Samsung, or Panasonic (all attached to this make) won't post a fix.

Have not tried to copy blueray movies. As far as othere new DVDs its a gamble some are coded or something but for most of what I have tried I have been successful.

I've been using it a reader for both data and movies and it works out of the box with no drivers needed. You will need software for Blu Ray Movie Playback. I have yet to try burning anything but nothing indicates it can't be done. You may need burning software for it to actually burn discs. I don't know if the built in burning feature in OS X works with BD Rs.

As more blue Ray disks ship, you'll need to update the firmware which means you'll have to buy wireless adapter or you won't be able to view any new releases. I just found that out myself!!!

Well, Alicia B: The Manufacturer does not exclude Blu-Ray Disc - I think they would have if they found it would have been harmful or not be useful in that particualar type of Disc. I have used this a number of times with success on DVD's and CD's. But I believe probably how severe your damage is makes all the difference. Now Alicia, all you have to do is to make a decision. Is it worth the $25.00 investment + shipping if applicable to take a chance to see if it works , or improves it or not. Also, I don't know, but maybe the Manufacture has a good return policy if not satisified, Oftentimes they do. You can also check with Amazons customer service, I'm sure they would know about return policies. I hope I have helped you at least to some extent. Isn't everything about decisions? - decisions?, the right one the wrong one. Good Luck with everything, and I hope for you that it everything works out well.

Don't know about that. I hooked up a sata drive and it works okay. Best to contact the maker of the blu ray drive for info.

Hi Terry&gt; Yes Nero Blue-ray Player which is included w/ Nero 2014 Platinum works perfectly well for viewing both regular DVD's & commercial Blue-ray movies viewing! If you don't like the Nero Blue-ray Player you could also use either ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre 6 or PowerDVD 13 Ultra et cetera as all these do work well on both Windows 7 as well as on Windows 8.1 (x64). As for Windows Server 2012 R2 do rather use PowerDVD 13 Ultra as the others are not compatible w/ it!

I cant confirm, as I havent tried to burn a Blu Ray disk. But I would be surprised if it required additional software to burn one. Then again, I was surprised to find it didnt come with Microsoft Office. Sorry I couldnt be of more help.

Did they just forget these features when they made Blue ray players? I doubt it, they just left room for improvement so we would have a reason to buy newer models. The proof in this is to ask yourself how many DVD players you have boughtt over the years, and how many of them were bought because the old one stopped working, versus you just wanted some of the cool upgraded features they offered?

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".

It only lists the following formats as playable: Multi-format playback: Capability now includes DVD-/+R, DVD-/+RW, VCD, SVCD, CD-R, CD-RW, and MP3 playback for flexible playback options.BD is not among them. I say that because, while I own one, I've never actually tried putting a blu-ray disc directly into the drive. As far as I know, it is strictly a DVD player. I use a PS3 for my blu-ray needs.I would opt for something else if you want blu-ray capabilities.

I have used several: DVD FAB, Nero 11 and several iso burners. The only thing I tried that failed completely was the Windows burner. It is an absolute bust at Blu-Ray. Blu-Ray burning is a real resource hog I am using win7, quad core running at 3.2Ghz and 8 Gig of RAM and when burning I still can't do anything else.

NO it does not play Blue Ray disks. It has a "DVD-SuperMulti Drive" that plays/records anything from CD-R's up to DVD+RW (Re-Write) disks. A laptop that would play Blue Ray's would say it has a BD-ROM optical drive.
