(More customer reviews)Disappointed to find drive rips Blu-Rays at same speed as 4x drive. If this is your use, save your money and buy a slower drive. The bottleneck is clearly drive speed.
Update 12-Jan-2010: Drive is very fast ripping DVDs. However, Blu-Rays rip 20% slower than my 4x LG. Very disappointed with Blu-Ray results. Otherwise, drive is great.
Update 25-Jan-2010: More information about the drive's slow Blu-Ray ripping performance is becoming available. Confirming my observations, there are reports that the shipping firmware limits dual layer Blu-Ray ripping to 4x. This is contrary to the specifications. However, you can increase the speed by using MediaCodeSpeedEdit software. Look for the program on cdfreaks website. With this software, the drive becomes a great performer.
Update: 30-Oct-2010: Drive won't read some commerical recordings. No problem on my older, slower drive. This drive was a real lemon. I lowered the rating to two stars.
