Does the BUFFALO MediaStation 16x External BDXL Blu-Ray Writer - Black (BRXL-16U3) write the m-disk?

It isn't rated as such as it does't have the M-disk logo. My no understanding is b they require a higher powered laser.

It can only read Blu-Ray discs and burn DVDs: Blu-ray Reader/DVD-Writer BD-ROM/DVD-RAM/R/RW

This drive is backward compatible. It reads and writes Blu-ray, reads and writes DVD and CD as well.

I own the M-DISC media and it is fantastic with my external LG Blu-Ray drive. But would require an awful lot of discs for a full backup. I backup to an external HD using Acronis Tru-Image. Making an image of the entire drive gives me everything including the operating system, registry, programs and all of the files.

It will work fine as a dvd drive to write blu rays with the right software, however playing them depends on the video card built in the ultrabook.

According to the manual it can, at 5X speed (same for write.) However, in "AV Mode," where you connect it to a "smart TV" with a USB connector, the DVD-RAM disks will not work there (nor will Blu-Ray DVDs, I assume.)

you can connect blu-ray drive with sata port on motherboard with a Pata port, but as i can see the bandwidth is not enough to watch movies from BD.

Writes all media in CD, DVD and Blu-Ray. Does the M-DISC long life media which is why I bought it for secure backups

I use this model mainly for DVDs. It is quiet and fast. I have burned 25Gb blu-ray discs but not of the M-disc type. LGs says it supports M-disc.

These are BD-R discs. Like a DVD-R disc, "write once" is the only option. To rewrite a Blu-ray disc requires the BD-RE format (Blu-ray Disc Recordable Erasable type disc)

The DBK does not support BDXL. EBK models do. http://forums.anandtech.com/showpost.php?p=36209077&postcount=6

Yes, it's a blu-ray burner and it works extremely well and it uses BD-R and BD-R DL discs like these: Optical Quantum 25GB 4X BD-R Logo Top Spindle - 25 pcs Ridata BDR-254-RDCB15 4X 25 GB BD-R Cakebox (15 Pack) Verbatim 97090 25 GB 2x Blu-ray Single-Layer Recordable Disc BD-R LTH (Low to High), 20-Disc Spindle Verbatim 96909 50 GB 2x Blu-ray Double-Layer Branded Recordable Disc BD-R DL,10-Disc Spindle

This device is multi-region for DVD out of the box. But it is not completely for BD as there is a Region Code Instructions set on a piece of paper. I tried it successfully on mine. - No disc inserted - Press "Setup" - Enter code "1369" - DVD code is set to 0 which means multi-region - Blu Ray code is 1 for region A, 2 for region B and 4 for region C - press "Setup" again to save If you set Blu Ray code to 2 it should now read your region B disk.

I was wondering the same thing...on this product or an other Blu-Ray players. Someone told me it does but I haven't seen it listed as part of the specificationsfor any I've looked at.

This device will not burn BD-Rom. It will burn DVD/CD and I have have not had any issues reading Blue Ray discs. Hope this helps to answers your question. Also a link to the Asus Website https://www.asus.com/Optical_Drives/BC12B1ST/#overview

To clarify my previous answer, M disc is DVD format not BluRay format per your question. The description stated that it does support it

No. This unit comes with a DVD writer. The Blu-Ray drive is an optional component included in some builds of this machine available from vendors outside of Amazon.
