I tested the SBC-06D1S-U on Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit and Windows 7 Professional 64- and 32-bit flavors. On all platforms, the device was up and running within seconds of first plugging it in. At 8x for most DVD speeds and 6x for Blu-Ray read, the...

Abstract: Mit 170 Euro ist das USB-Combo nicht gerade billig, allerdings sind die Alternativen dünn gesät. Interessant könnte der externe BDBrenner BR-X816U2 von Buffalo sein, der rund 25 Euro mehr kostet. Er ist als echter Brenner in diesem Test allerdings nicht vertreten.
