Review: LG Electronics 14x SATA Bluray Internal Rewriter! Without Software? - This is my first Bluray reader, so i dont have to much to compare to, but until now its amazing! looks great, its lightweight (REALLY LIGHTWEIGHT), the instalation its easy as any dvd or cd rewriter just uses a SATA cable (Use de 6GB/s ones on this for better performance), and the power strips from your PSU. The package: Normal and simple, good protection. The weird thing is that it came with a software! dont know why but inside the box came an ASUS DVD SUITE, which comes with Nero 10 Essentials, E-Green, E-Hammer, Asus Firmware Update and Quick install guide! lots of weird stuff i maybe never use, but might come in handy for someone. (i havent used the disc, so i dont know if this software comes with serials and activations) This package does not come with the SATA Cable to conect the unit nor the power strip of course. Installation: Just turn off your computer, get the tray out or remove your old rewriter, put the bluray rewriter in place and secure the screws if your case, then connect the SATA cable and your power strip. Close your case and turn your computer on. It will display that annoying message that new hardware has been detected, it will look for the drivers and you are good to go. Let it roll!: I test it with the movie Super 8 Bluray on my pc and guess what? nothing happend when i close the tray! yes u need additional software to play your blurays! (NO VLC CANT! dont waste your time) The best one i found was Power DVD 11, so i downloaded it and applied an updated in order to play the bluray, and it worked great, looks awesome, no slowmotion during the movie, no glitches, no lag everything worked. The sound coming from the unit is minimum, less than my old DVD rewriter. Yes power dvd its kind of laggy, and really really bad optimized, but thats a software problem. I dont know if it plays 3D Blurays, for the price i dont think so, but i have a PS3 for that so i dont care. I havent burned a bluray yet so i cant tell, but ill update this when i do Overall im happy with it, great price and great unit. Im an LG Lover so its great for me :D Review: Excellent Drive, Reasonable Software - Updated with corrections 12/17/2012 I have two of these drives. So far I have seen no problems reading or burning Blurays. I've written single density BD-R and BD-RE drives without a hitch. The resulting disks play flawlessly in my aging Samsung Bluray player. Most Bluray disks read at about 22 MB/s, but there are some that drop to 10 MB/s and some that exceed 30 MB/s. The drives also work well reading and writing CDs and DVDs at speeds a little slower than my older Samsung DVD drives. Consider keeping a DVD drive in your machine if you want the best performance possible. The only quirk I found is that "Exact Audio Copy"---a program written specifically to read audio CDs accurately---could not rip audio from any CD. No matter what the setting, that program rips nothing but silence. With other programs (including Windows Media Player, J River, Winamp) the LG drive rips audio just fine. The included software is an LG branded OEM version of Cyberlink Bluray Disk Suite version 10. The suite includes a reasonable 3D BluRay player, which plays Blurays and DVDs direct from the drive, but not from disk. It also plays videos from disk. The Cyberlink player plays Avatar 3D very well. On one of my machines, with an Nvidia 560 video card, I can play accelerated 3D w/o issues. On another machine, with an Nvidia 650, 3D video will not play correctly. Both machines have no issues with the Nvidia 3D test program at either 720p or 1080p. Fortunately, the player has a mode called "Micro Polarizer 3D (row interleaved)" which works with TVs (including LG and Visio) that use non-powered 3D glasses. (Local theater 3D glasses are compatible) These TVs polarize the even pixel rows on the screen in one mode, and the odd rows in another mode, so the player is able to render 3D by rendering two different images---in even/odd mode---w/o help from either the TV or the video card. Both my computers were able to display 3D movies in this mode. The downside is that the motion compensation is poor, and fast moving action appears a bit more jerky than it does in 2D mode. The Cyberlink player also has a mode that converts anything it can play in 2D to 3D. While this mode is far from the best 3D available, it works remarkably well. If you try it, you *will* be amazed. You must install your LG drive before you can install the Cyberlink software. Shortly after installation, the Cyberlink software prompts you to download an update. The first time you try to install the update, it fails. On the second try, it installs w/o difficulty. Also included with the software is an automatic firmware updater for your LG drive. The updater pops up a window every time the machine boots. If you get tired of the interruptions, you can uninstall the updater. The Cyberlink suite contains a number of other program I haven't tried. These include a Bluray burner, a label printer, and some movie creation tools. At the time of this review, on desertcart, the Cyberlink software adds $5 to the cost of the drive. In my opinion, the Cyberlink software is well worth the added cost. ## Features - Drive Type: Super-Multi Internal SATA Blu-ray Disc Rewriter - BD-R SL/DL: 14X/12XDVD-R SL/DL: 16X/8XDVD plusR SL/DL: 16X/8X - CD-RW: 24X - Buffer Memory: 4MB - Operating System: Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007VPGL5U | | Additional Features | Blu-Ray Disc | | Best Sellers Rank | #8 in Internal Blu-ray Drives | | Brand | LG | | Built-In Media | Drive | | Cache Memory Installed Size | 1 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | compatible support for Windows 10 | | Connectivity Technology | Serial ATA | | Customer Package Type | Standard Packaging | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 4,156 Reviews | | Digital Storage Capacity | 128 GB | | Form Factor | 2.5 Inch | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 5.25 Inches | | Hard Disk Interface | ATA-4 | | Hard Disk Rotational Speed | 1 | | Hardware Interface | SATA 1.5 Gb/s | | Hardware Platform | PC | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 6.5"L x 5.7"W x 1.6"H | | Item Weight | 1.65 Pounds | | Manufacturer | LG Electronics | | Media Speed | 48X | | Mfr Part Number | WH14NS40 | | Model Name | WH14NS40 | | Model Number | WH14NS40 | | Operating System | Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP | | Optical Storage Read Speed | 24x | | Optical Storage Write Speed | 24x | | Read Speed | 22.16 Megabytes Per Second | | Special Feature | Blu-Ray Disc | | Specific Uses For Product | Personal | | UPC | 719192625150 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LG - **Hardware Interface:** SATA 1.5 Gb/s - **Optical Storage Read Speed:** 24x - **Optical Storage Write Speed:** 24x - **Special Feature:** Blu-Ray Disc ## Images ![LG Electronics WH14NS40 14X Blu-ray/DVD/CD Multi compatible Internal SATA Rewriter Drive, BDXL, M-DISC Support, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41QCba6VbGL.jpg) ![LG Electronics WH14NS40 14X Blu-ray/DVD/CD Multi compatible Internal SATA Rewriter Drive, BDXL, M-DISC Support, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71KJeNVzuRL.jpg) ![LG Electronics WH14NS40 14X Blu-ray/DVD/CD Multi compatible Internal SATA Rewriter Drive, BDXL, M-DISC Support, Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EyOCu1HaL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What included in the box?** A: This is a barebone drive. You're getting it cheaper because there is no software disk, manual and often not even a box. Physical stores sell these in a plastic bag, not even cardboard box. Don't worry though, my Windows 10 PC detected and installed it without any issues (didn't even have to download anything). You can then go to the LG site and download the software that would have came with it and download it. The software might have some nice features. **Q: where can i get the software for this drive** A: Software can be downloaded online or you can request a disc from us - I would need to know what you operating system you have and if you are needing a media player to play blu ray/dvd or the burning software to burn cd/dvd/blu ray - Thank you **Q: Does this drive come with software?** A: NO. It is only a BDRL drive. It does not even come with any hardware to install or connect it. **Q: hi, i am planing to buy this product, but i am sure if this come with Blu ray player software?** A: No it doesn't. This product only comes with the drive itself. No cables, no software, no screws, or any other accessory. This is why it's cheaper than other Blu ray drives that come with included software and accessories. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ LG Electronics 14x SATA Bluray Internal Rewriter!

(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 JΓΆrg Schilling Linux sg driver version: 3.5.34 Using libscg version 'schily-0.9'.
