LG BE06 External Blu-Ray Burner

We expected LG's new 6x external Blu-ray burner to perform similarly to the company's GBW-H20L, what with the two having identical read/write speed ratings, but we were wrong. The external drive is a bigger, more expensive letdown.

Good BD-R and DVD-R write times

Huge; pathetic BD-RE writes; not worth the price

While there’s something to be said for the convenience of an external drive with a USB 2.0 interface, this is offset by the BE06’s gargantuan size. The enclosure is nearly 3 inches longer and an inch wider than its internal brethren—and $100 more...

LG BE06 External Blu-ray Rewriter

LG's external Blu-ray writer is huge, but does the job. We're still not in the age of Blu-ray though, and we wonder if we ever will be.

Comprehensive format support. Writes up to 6x on Blu-ray. Reasonably priced.

LG BE06 review

The LG BE06 is a stylish external Blu-ray drive that can be plugged into any PC with a spare USB 2.0 port.
