I always have been wondering about a blu ray burner, and if I really needed one. I keep buying hard drives for storage as they are so cheap now. Plextor make great products, this looks very good. price is a bit steep, thats 4TB of storage !
I have alwsys bought plextor. they cost more, but really worth it. they use the best components.
I haven’t opted for a blu ray burner yet. the discs are still quite expensive, hard drive space is cheaper. Maybe someday I will.
Id love one, but the disc prices still put me off. hard drives are so cheap right now. local store was selling a 2TB for only 60
