Sorry, didn't complete my response. My LG Blue-Ray Disk is labled M@Disk Bd Rewriter. It should burn the M disk.

Hello Melissa, yes it will play blueray files with extensions such as .mkv, .mp4 or .avi. but not a ripped blueray if thats what youre asking. And yes it'll work with up to a 2TB drive. I have a 1TB western digital drive and works fine.

It isn't a blue ray disc, but it plays fine in a blue ray player. It plays fine on my laptop, which doesn't play blue ray discs.

It works with the Mac OS right out of the box. It also can be reformatted via Disk Utility.

Depending on your disk drive (it has to be rated for Blue Ray) able to play . You need proper drivers for what windows system you are using. I have a E6500 in my system and I have a DVD recorder and with no problems.

I am not into Blue ray, just files, but it works very well on the computer that is on my 50 inch TV.

Hello Sergio, it should work with TV and Blu-rays. I use mine with my Samsung SmartTv and it reads the drive just fine. I would suggest reformatting the drive.

I have systems with Windows 7 and Windows 8.1. I haven't tested all aspects with both, but can attest it operated immediately when I plugged it into a Win 8.1 laptop. It should both play back and burn audio discs, DVDs, and will read software programs recorded on optical discs. What it will NOT do is handle Blu-ray formats.

I've been using it a reader for both data and movies and it works out of the box with no drivers needed. You will need software for Blu Ray Movie Playback. I have yet to try burning anything but nothing indicates it can't be done. You may need burning software for it to actually burn discs. I don't know if the built in burning feature in OS X works with BD Rs.

Sorr y my first answer was not complete. You can down load software for wd and seagate drives that will recognize and format them.

Win8 should natively support the drive as both a reader and writer of data (excluding movies). That being said, if you are planning to watch Blu Rays or use it for "other activities", then you will need the appropriate software that allows playback of encrypted discs, such as Cyberlink Power DVD or AnyDVD.

Hi,We hate to bring this up. This has nothing to do with the drive, but the software that converts it. The disc will burn on the drive for those files, but it is still the post production work you done on your computer for converting the files to digital.So, the questions is really about post production work of converting blu ray discs to digital. Yes, this drive can read blu ray discs. That is the simple part of the answer.

As long you have the correct codecs for your OS, it should play. It has nothing to do with the dvd or blu ray drive, rather the player (software apps) playing the VLC files.

You don't need drivers, you need, simply, a program that can process blu-rays.The external drive only reads blurays, u need third-party software to utilize it to its fullest.

It won't play blue ray files as they come in blue ray discs. They need to be remuxed or converted to Mkv or Avi. You should be able to plug your 2TB drive.
