Manual of product BH10LS38
Editorial note
The LG BH10LS38 optical drive stands out for its fast writing speeds, reaching up to 16x for DVD-R and DVD+R, allowing for quick burning while maintaining optimal quality. Its robustness is also a strong point, with a mean time between failures of 100,000 hours, ensuring prolonged use without interruptions. Additionally, its practical design, allowing for desktop or wall mounting, adds to its installation flexibility. However, the product has some drawbacks. The writing speed for Blu-ray discs is relatively slow, topping out at 10x for BD-R and 2x for BD-RE, which may disappoint users looking for high performance. Furthermore, its compatibility is limited to older operating systems like Windows XP, Vista, and 7, which could frustrate those using newer versions. The access time, while reasonable, may not satisfy users demanding ultra-fast performance, and the lack of internal components necessitates the use of external ones. In summary, the LG BH10LS38 offers good value for money with its features and durability, but it is important to consider its limitations in writing speed and compatibility before making a choice.Score details
