Good choice for my first BD drive read/writer Cds,Dvds, & Bds combo front slot loading drive with Win 10 Pro compatibility.
I am pleasantly pleased by this BD,DVD,CD combo read write drive I purchased. All is working well and I had only 1 CD that had a bind when trying to insert it in to play the music. I will no longer try to use it in the drive after this one attempt as I am pretty sure the CD is just from so long ago that the thickness of it as compared to current day cds varied slightly enough to cause the bind. All newer CDs,Dvds,&Bd's are working fine without any playback issue. I have yet to do any burning as of yet but will be trying it soon. I purchased cyberlink software v18 Ultra and its doing great. I love the front slot loading of this drive and that it's compatible with my Win 10 Pro PC.

Great for Mac. Not so much for Windows.
Works adequately. Would have like to have gotten Windows software with this instead of Mac only.
