I am using it to rip my DVD collection for Plex Media only, so I can only attest to that capability. FYI: I am using it with the external enclosure NexStar DX2 by Vantec, which was also incredibly easy to assemble and install; they go well together. This drive is also almost silent. It is also very fast when loading a disc. The "rip rate" is about 7.4 MB/sec (5.6x) for regular discs and 20.0 MB/sec (4.6x) for Blu-Ray; the rate starts slower but climbs as it copies. This is faster than the terrible USB external drive I was using and it does not cause my computer to shut down randomly and it actually reads Blu-Ray discs, unlike the (Blu-Ray) USB drive which was defective in several ways. It is more expensive than the USB drive, but well worth it. Review: Decent UHD drive - Same as the LG UHD drive. Never had a problem with them. Harder to come by, so I've bought some extra. ## Features - Extreme 16X Blu-Ray writing speed, backup 25GB data for only 8 minutes - M-disc Support, save your priceless memories or data for up to 1,000 years - BDXL Support - up to 128GB data storage in one disc ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00DWFPDJI | | Additional Features | M DISC support | | Best Sellers Rank | #65 in External Blu-ray Drives | | Brand | ASUS | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 8 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | PC, Laptop, Blu-ray Disc Player, DVD Player, CD Player, M-DISC Player, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Vista, Windows XP | | Connectivity Technology | Serial ATA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,776 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 128 gigabits_per_second | | Digital Storage Capacity | 128 GB | | Form Factor | 5.25-inch bay | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00803982779052, 00886227418879 | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 1.8 inches | | Hard Disk Interface | Serial ATA | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 48 | | Hardware Interface | SATA 6.0 Gb/s | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 6.9"L x 5.69"W x 1.59"H | | Item Weight | 16 ounces | | Manufacturer | ASUS Computer International Direct | | Media Speed | 16x | | Mfr Part Number | BW-16D1HT | | Model Name | BW-16D1HT | | Model Number | BW-16D1HT | | Operating System | Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows Vista, Windows XP | | Optical Storage Read Speed | 16x | | Optical Storage Write Speed | 16x | | Read Speed | 16 x | | Special Feature | M DISC support | | Specific Uses For Product | Personal | | UPC | 803982779052 886227418879 012300359153 021111728072 724627116462 729224804538 689341099197 132017922041 737833773312 731215292385 807030509943 021111209236 886227418909 172302668070 809186285771 | | Warranty Description | Comes with Manufacturer Warranty. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ASUS - **Hardware Interface:** SATA 6.0 Gb/s - **Optical Storage Read Speed:** 16x - **Optical Storage Write Speed:** 16x - **Special Feature:** M DISC support ## Images ![BW-16D1HT - Ultra-Fast 16X Blu-ray Burner with M-DISC Support, Black, 1 Year Warranty - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/614G0MxEr6L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works Perfectly! *by D***D on March 16, 2025* This drive works flawlessly. Installation was very easy. I am using it to rip my DVD collection for Plex Media only, so I can only attest to that capability. FYI: I am using it with the external enclosure NexStar DX2 by Vantec, which was also incredibly easy to assemble and install; they go well together. This drive is also almost silent.

Harder to come by, so I've bought some extra. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent drive, that works in Windows 10, that can read 4K movies with a firmware rollback *by D***S on June 1, 2020* I bought this drive June of 2019 for the sole purpose of ripping my purchased Blu-Ray & 4K movies for personal use on my Windows 10 rig. It's worked great in that regard. You need some software to rip the disc's but you can find that via Google (the one I use is free to try and can purchased for a small donation). Yes, this drive is not advertised to read 4K movies, but it can, with a tweak of the firmware. The problem is, with the pre-loaded firmware already installed, you cannot rip 4K movies right out of the box. Google "asus bw-16d1ht firmware 4K" and you will find the necessary instructions to downgrade to the older, 4K firmware. Be sure to follow the instructions to the letter if you attempt this. I did it on the first try. The included software does not allow you to read 4K movies, but you can purchase that separately on your own as well. The drive reads Blu-Ray's just fine as well as DVD's and CD's. I have also burned a few CD-R's, DVD-R's, and BD-R's with no issues. I haven't tried M-Discs yet but I plan on buying some and trying to burn them soon. I love this drive. For the price, you can't beat it. Especially if you are looking to rip your personal 4K collection. Edit: I just moved to a new rig and will install Windows 11 soon. My new case has no disc bay so I got an external drive case. I’ll post if the drive works under Windows 11. ## Frequently Bought Together - ASUS BW-16D1HT - ultra-fast 16X Blu-ray burner with M-DISC support, black - Microsoft System Builder | Windоws 11 Home | Intended use for new systems | Install on a new PC | Branded by Microsoft - Samsung 990 PRO SSD NVMe M.2 PCIe Gen4, M.2 2280 Internal Solid State Hard Drive, Seq.
