Compact portable Blu-ray writer

The Kanguru U3-BDRW-SL is a slim external optical drive that connects through SuperSpeed USB 3.0 and draws power from the port. It writes Blu-ray media at up to 6x (26.4 MB/s), DVDs at up to 8x (10.8 MB/s) and CDs at up to 24x (3.6 MB/s). The unit is TAA compliant and ships with digitally-signed secure firmware.

Sustained write behaviour

During long burns the drive maintains its rated speeds without requiring an external power brick. USB 3.0 bandwidth keeps the buffer fed so Blu-ray, DVD and CD sessions complete at 6x, 8x and 24x respectively. Backwards compatibility with USB 2.0 allows operation on older ports, though write rates will be limited by the slower bus.

Pre-purchase checks

Verify that your system provides a standard USB Type-A port or a suitable adapter for the drive's cable. Confirm the operating system supports external optical drives without proprietary drivers. Ensure you have blank BD-R, DVD or CD media matching the speeds above for the intended archival or authoring tasks.

Questions about this item

Does the USB-powered U3-BDRW-SL run hot or loud during long Blu-ray burns at 6x?

The drive draws all power from the USB 3.0 port and has no fan, so it stays quiet; sustained 26.4 MB/s writes may warm the slim enclosure but it is designed for continuous operation.

My laptop only has USB 2.0 ports — will the Kanguru U3-BDRW-SL still burn discs?

Yes, the SuperSpeed USB 3.0 interface is backwards compatible with USB 2.0, though Blu-ray write speed will drop below the 6x rating when running on the older port.

Can I keep using my existing DVD-RW and CD-R media with this 6x Blu-ray writer?

The drive writes DVD±R up to 8x at 10.8 MB/s and CD-R up to 24x at 3.6 MB/s, so your current discs work at their rated speeds.
