## Description

LG Electronics UH12NS30 12X SATA Blu-ray Combo Internal Drive w/ 3D Playback & M-DISC Support, Bulk

Review: Good, Quiet, Feels Solid - Plugged it in to my motherboard and PSU, slapped a Blu-Ray in the tray, and started ripping using makeMKV... That's all I wanted it to do, honestly. Note- this DOES NOT come with the playback software unless you buy it that way. I bought the bare drive, and that is what I received. Works fine for ripping movies or reading Data BD discs, that's all I wanted it for. Note 2: If you rip movies, please only rip movies that you own, and please don't share those ripped movies with other people.
Review: Great Drive, works perfectly I like the detail of ... - Great Drive, works perfectly I like the detail of the open the track button, reproduce Blue Ray perfectly, and 3D Blue Ray Movies without any problem, great cause thats exactly what was looking for, and the price is very well, Does not include cables (usually comes with your motherboard and Power Supply) or software (I'm using it with PowerDVD), it's just a Drive but it does everything it suppossed to do without any errors. But If I Should buy it again for some extra bucks I would buy this same Drive with the Burner Blu Ray Option Model.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Value Blu-ray Drive – Reliable, Quiet, and Affordable
*by R***H on January 24, 2025*

I purchased the LG Internal UH12NS30 BD-ROM Blu-ray drive in 2016, and so far, it’s been an excellent addition to my PC setup. Here's my breakdown: Pros: Reliable Performance: This Blu-ray drive works flawlessly for reading and playing back Blu-ray discs, DVDs, and CDs. It provides quick load times and smooth playback, which has been great for both movies and data storage. Compatibility: Installation was a breeze, and it seamlessly integrates with my Windows PC. No issues with drivers or compatibility, which is always a huge plus. Affordable: For a Blu-ray drive, this is very reasonably priced, especially considering its quality. It’s an excellent value for those looking for a Blu-ray drive without breaking the bank. Quiet Operation: I was impressed by how quiet it operates. Even when reading discs at high speeds, it runs relatively quietly, which is great if you're in a quiet environment or using the PC for tasks that require focus. Cons: Write Speed: While it’s great for reading and playing Blu-ray discs, the write speed isn't as fast as some higher-end models. If you're looking for a drive primarily for burning discs, you might want to explore other options. No 4K Support: This model doesn’t support 4K UHD Blu-ray playback, so if you're specifically after ultra-high-definition content, you might want to look for a more premium option. Overall: The LG Internal UH12NS30 BD-ROM Blu-ray drive is an excellent choice for those who need reliable Blu-ray disc reading and don’t need ultra-high-speed writing or 4K playback. It offers great value for the price and has been a solid performer for all my media needs. Definitely recommend it for general use!
