    horrible software

    I will not know if this burner works because the software that came with it - cyberlink media suite - doesn't work AT ALL. Just crashes everytime I set up files to burn.

          I use the drive to create movies in DVD and Blu Ray format. What I liked most about the drive is that it worked with the provided software right out of the box.

          As of yet, I can't find any cons with it.

                          I have been trying to make the software work since I received the drive/Cyberlink. Trying to use the included "Power DVD 10" causes fatal errors as soon as you insert any DVD, either Blu-Ray or Std DVD. Cyberlink support has been slow and not helpful so far. After buying other software, I am making progress, and think the drive is great. [...] I use them for all my camera gear as well.
