LG CH12LS28 12X Blu-Ray Reader & Lightscribe DVD Writer Combo Drive

Comment:
Wotks as i need it to. on the slow side but then that is expected with all blu-ray burners

Comment:
Been using LG drives for years and they have never let me down. Waited for the blu-ray reader to come down to a reasonable price and chose LG because of its reliability and the fact they can read pretty much any brand of cd/dvd you try.

Works great, nice upgrade for watching Blu Ray movies on PC.

Comment:
medium at best but still get the work going

Comment:
so i bought because i was just looking to get a cheaper blu-ray player for my mom's computer, and for some reason it isn't compatible or something like that. doesn't show up in devices, and i was having trouble finding support. I ended up selling this one to a friend for like 20 bucks or something, and i saw another person having the same problem on here. I just reminded myself to write this after I went to my friends house to watch a movie on his computer with the blu-ray drive, which works fine with his pc.

I bought this for a guy that needed a HTPC. It's much less expensive than buying a 100-150$ blu-ray dvd player for people who don't use their computer on their tv.

Bought this for a Xmas present. i haven't tried it out so i hope it works. I guess i will just have to wait and see LOL.so as of now i can only give it 3 out of 5 due to unknown working conditions. I will change when i find out.

I'm currently building my first computer and was slightly shocked to see this not come with a SATA data connector cord (power connector is obviously on my power supply)The manual says it is supposed to come with one, so i will be mailing NCIX support shortly

Bought this so I could play blu-rays on my HTPC. Wish it had been a bit cheaper, but it's still a good player for the price.

Comment:
this is a good drive, does what's suppose to do, using some 3rdparty software to write, few years ago bluray writer wasnt even near this price, technology is advancing real quick nowadays

Comment:
I bought this to complement my LG BH12LS38. I was kind of surprised that this LG Blu-Ray drive was not shipped in retail packaging. The included software should be adequate for most users. These drives can read anything I've put their way.

Comment:
Good product for it's price point.

Comment:
Nolonger works. Not showing up as an available drive. Shows a conflict in device manager.Tried reinstalling drivers, no luck. Doesn't show up as an LG drive on their support page.

Comment:
not too noisy and so far no bad burning, plus it's having Lightscribe really handy for labelling

Comment:
Bought this on a sale. Performs as expected, no issues so far.

Comment:
that is my first blue ray reader and dvd combo drive, because it was on sale and it is the cheapest blue ray drive on the market.i think it should be good as only $49.black color front panel, looks cool.runs ok for me but little bit loud.

Comment:
looks very nice. and quick shipping.

Comment:
I bought this unit to replace a dying LiteOn bluray player. This one is faster and its price is low.

Comment:
I have never had any issues with LG DVD drive and it looks like they are continuing the trend with their Bluray drives

Comment:
It works as advertised. Looks great mounted in a white 600T SE case.

Comment:
Needed a reader for blu-ray discs, does the job well.

Comment:
An affordable option for introducing Bluray (read) into your HTPC or other build. Comes with included software, as previously noted. Good read and write times.Unfortunately, the front plate is glossy black (hard to tell in the photo), which I am not fond of, as the rest of my case is matte. Not a big deal, but it may be important to others where matching face plates would be ideal.No problems experienced with the drive so far. Would purchase again.

Burns very well, has blu-ray capabilities... what more is there to say? It's at a great price too.Recommended!

Got this for my HTPC to play blu-ray, DVDs and eventually rip blu-rays. Has a gloss black front finish, not like photo, with horizontal pinstriping. Actually looks nice. Tray is solid and sturdy. Generally the unit is quiet. OEM version but came with PowerDVD 9. Software was a bit of a surprise, I was expecting v8 which everyone seems to hate. So this will play 5.1DTS (confirmed) and I think it will do 7.1 as well. There are 3D logos on both the disk and splash screens. I cannot confirm that it will play 3D but I read another review on this v9 OEM disk that it does play back 3D just fine. Blu-rays take about 20 seconds to get going after you close the tray. PowerDVD 9 opens automatically after disk inserted. Using Win7 32bit.I have it playing through a MSI E350IA-E45 motherboard, HDMI to my TV and picture looks great. Sound is via optical to my AV receiver. Got a bit of a break on the price via a price match somewhere else.
