Buffalo Technology BRXL-16U3 16x External BDXL Blu-Ray Burner

External BDXL Blu-ray Burner

The Buffalo MediaStation BRXL-16U3 is a new external optical drive that writes BDXL discs at up to 16x speed. It connects through a USB 3.0 interface and reads or writes Blu-ray, DVD and CD media. The package includes a USB 3.0 cable, a setup disc with CyberLink Media Suite software and a quick setup guide.

Suits desktop users adding high-capacity optical

This drive suits users who need to archive up to 128 GB on a single four-layer BDXL disc instead of the 25 GB limit of standard Blu-ray. It also serves buyers who want bundled CyberLink tools for disc authoring and playback. It does not suit buyers who need an internal 5.25-inch drive or who require a different host interface than USB 3.0.

BDXL capacity up to 128 GB per disc

The single specification that decides fit is BDXL support, which enables writing 128 GB to a four-layer disc compared to 25 GB on a traditional single-layer Blu-ray. If your workflow needs that capacity, this drive meets it; if standard Blu-ray capacity is sufficient, the extra capability may be unnecessary.
