Does it burn bluray?

Don't bother buying HP for performance laptops. They are known to have a problem with the placement of the air vents underneath the laptop. Buy ASUS instead, it is what I have and it has served me well.

I don't know as we don't use bluray. I will tell you however that overall we are not happy with ours. It buffers a lot on normal dvd's, and now it is not playing the dvd's I bought it for very well. Also if you stop it to clean the dvd's you have to start the disk over again. We ended up just going back to our 15 year old sony and I am looking for the dvd's made for our region to replace the others that don't work now. I am not happy with Toshiba as a whole. I bought a Toshiba lap top and finally sold it to a friend and got myself a little gateway.

No, this drive will not support BDXL burning. You will need to find certain other Pioneer blu ray drives that can support that.

It will read Blu-ray and burn to DVD/CD. It will not burn to Blu-ray. We do have a customized model which has the drive upgraded to be able to burn Blu Ray as well http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KY5QE88.

There no disc drive at all, so no it does not play blu-ray. I have an external DVD-RW drive that I use if I need to burn a disc.

Yes. I burn DVD and Blu-Ray. I haven't burned CD in a long time, but no reason why it shouldn't.

Sure, you can burn the recordings to BluRay ... however, depending on how your cable company flags the broadcast, its very possible that the burned recordings will only be playable on the PC that made them (premium channels in particular with "high value" content, e.g. HBO HD movies, etc.)

According to the link below, it will not burn blu rays. You can rip them to your computer, but not rewrite to disc.http://burners.burn4free.com/hewlett-packard/hp-bc-5501h.htm

Sorry - don't have a bluray player so I cannot test it for you. Maybe someone else can help?

No I wasted my money on it..It needs a software that will burn even a regular blu ray disc.

Yes. I use thePhilips BD-RDL Blu-Ray Disk and better still the TDK BD-RE DL. The Panasonic UJ262 burns 46G files without problems. However you wait 3.5 hours for the burning at a max of 2x speed.

It will burn the media onto the disc, but it won't burn the images on the light scribe portion. Hope that helps.

I can not answer this question - I regret buying mine and would suggest you return this item if you can. It was a waste of money for me and I do not recommend that anyone buy this product if they need it for burning. The advertising says it will burn but I also did not find the way to burn it - I even re-installed the program but because this item did not come with instructions I did not find the way to burn a disc.

I have yes. Since it doesn't come with a power cord to supply power to it separately, it needs to run through the USB cord. Blu-ray discs require maximum write speed in order to encode (whether you're going directly from Adobe Encore or exporting a disc image file from Encore and burning in Disk Utility, I found it gives the same result). Running a brand new (at the time) 2013 iMac, I found that I was not able to reliably burn a Blu-ray disc with Encore or Disk Utility. I was able to burn DVD's. There is a slot on the back that looks like it can connect to 9 volt power of some kind, which might fix the problem, but I haven't been able to troubleshoot that far, unfortunately.

For Blu Ray and regular DVDs, I use the "LG Burning Tool" software that came with the LG burner, and it works great. Good luck!
