So far, the LG WH14NS40 arrived in a simple plastic bag with all the needed or required parts, including the useless software. (Sorry, I make more use of open source programs as they're more reliable then closed source.) Regardless of the lack of cardboard, the bulk unit looks to be in pristine shape, and I prefer bulk items as they're cheaper. (Can't do much with the card board once the item is unwrapped and seems to be a waste of money.) Pros: 1) Eject seems to work much smoother & quicker then the Pioneer BDR-207. 2) Cool blue LED drive activity light. It's far from being too bright, which is good. Although I didn't mind the older LED green lights. Guess this shows LG is on-the-ball with always trying something a little new, without being too excessive and risking breaking perfectly fine features. 3) Eject button is also of different style, which is a move away from the old style buttons. Dunno if there's any benefit, but it's a change from the past without any apparent risk to the function of the button. 4) Since I primarily record data and not music, this drive support 48x CD-R versus the Pioneer BDR-207 (and the newer BDR-208?) only supporting 40x CD-R speed rates. My guess, Pioneer is in the business of audio quality versus data archiving. # dmesg scsi 2:0:0:0: CD-ROM HL-DT-ST BD-RE WH14NS40 1.00 PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 sr0: scsi3-mmc drive: 1x/1x writer dvd-ram cd/rw xa/form2 cdda tray cdrom: Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.20 sr 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi CD-ROM sr0 sr 2:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 5 # cdrecord -prcap Cdrecord-ProDVD-ProBD-Clone 3.00 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2010 Jörg Schilling Linux sg driver version: 3.5.34 Using libscg version 'schily-0.9'.

I have been using this drive as one of the drives capable of making digital backups of my blu rays, 4k and regular. It works great for this after a firmware update. If you look on the makemkv website there are 4-5 users who have figured all this out and have tutorials and have even made free software that will autodetect which drive you have and which firmware you need. Once you have that around 10-minute process (including time there for looking up and following the instructions, actual process is like 30 seconds), its just a matter of using makemkv to rip the discs. I understand you can also use the drive for live playback with a free program like VLC after the firmware update, but I have not tried this yet. A full movie takes around 45-60 minutes to finish ripping. As far as I know its perfectly legal to make backups of your own movies, and once you have you can even use plex or other free software to watch them on any playback device connected to the internet!

Works great, for a person who still uses this kind of media. Be careful upgrading firmware... Some firmware is meant to disable certain capabilities regarding the whole DVD/Blu-ray Region/Licensing fiasco.

Have wanted a Blu-Ray burner for awhile mainly for the amount of space it gives you. Finally decided to go with this burner as I have a number of LG DVD burners now and all have preformed very well and for long periods of time. Got in in today and as expected it was an OEM item. I've installed OEM stuff before so that wasn't a problem. I did run into one thing that did take a bit of time to figure out. I have an Inspiron 3847 computer and the front has the standard drop down doors that cover the DVD's front and open by dropping down whenever the eject button is pressed. I didn't think this would present any problem as the front panel item worked great on my old DVD burner. After popping off the case's front panel, taking out the old burner and installing the this burner, I discovered after I snapped the front panel back on that when I pressed the front panel's eject button that it didn't seem to be pressing the new drives eject button. I took the front panel off again and after much checking and puzzling over what could be the problem, I found out what was happening. It seems that the Inspiron's eject item expected a button instead of the full up and down "part of the front case" eject item the LG used. (It has a full across the front panel that runs the full length of the burner and is raised on the right side where the hidden eject button is. When the front panel of the computer was snapped back into place, it pushed up against this raised front part of the drive thus having the effect of pushing the area with the button all the time and therefore you wouldn't be able to use the eject right.) I solved this by trimming just a bit of the case's front panel's edge off where it hit the drives hidden eject panels front. (Just enough to leave a gap between the drive and the computer case's front panel. This proved to solve this problem with no problem. Now when you pushed the eject button you could feel the drives button being pushed. After getting that solved, and after I mounted an extra HD in the empty 5.4 drive bay, I took it into the computer room to check out. I booted up went to the BIOS and checked the drives and all showed up but I had to switch a cable as the last HD showed up in the wrong slot and I wanted the Blu-Ray on the last slot. After that I booted all the way up and Windows 10 "saw" all drives correctly. Most of my use of DVD type drives on my systems are for back up and since that's what I intended to use this for, I checked it out. I made a CD back up of some files without a problem. I then tried a DVD+RW disk back up and this went OK too. I then placed a blank Blu-Ray disk in the drive and made a back up of a folder off my HD for a test. Window's file manger was what I used with the "send to" item on the right click menu. It copied the files and I burned them onto the disk with no problems. I then took the disk out and put it back in the see about reading the disk and had no trouble at all looking thru the folders and the files and opening them, etc. I noted this drive runs faster then my old drive did and it seems to "feel" more solid than my old one. I noted that Windows 10 popped up the correct drivers for the drive without a problem and I really like how fast it reads my disks. I haven't put it to extensive use yet, but it has the feel of a nice drive. Other than the case issue, which either Dell or LG might consider addressing, this is a really good drive and just what I wanted.

For 50-60 dollars, this drive is a phenomenal value. I highly recommend this drive, especially if you're willing to do the research and cross-flash the drive (5 mins max) to be able to read/play UHD 4k discs. I have viewed/read about 25 UHD discs and 50 regular blu-rays from my local library for family movie night, with no fails yet. Previously, I had difficulty with a slim LG drive since the library stickers were vibrating and erroring out the proper function of that drive. This one is half as expensive and infinitely reliable. I will update if anything changes.
