Works very Well and easy to install also very quiet when reading discs. I have 3 Lite-on products and like everyone no failures on any of them and 2 of them are at least 8 years old.
GREAT DRIVE

Installation of the Serial ATA drive and setup of the hardware in Windows Vista SP2 was literally Plug-and-Play. With this non-OEM version you get software and a Blu-Ray Rewritable disk too! I have recorded HD content with this drive using a AVCHD Handycam. At 2x on BR-RE its not fast... but it works, and with Stunning video quality. Not to mention I can watch Blu-ray movies. This drive will only record onto Single Layer Blu-Ray disks, 25GB. Which I think is a great way to make the drive cheaper, and more for home use, since you can still read the Dual layer Blu-Ray disks.
CAREFUL!!! The drive needs software to play Blu-ray Movies!!! The included software did not work on my computer, I purchased PowerDVD 9 Ultra and never had a problem. However the included software player is not guaranteed to work on custom built systems.
Works fine

Great drive. No pronlems what so ever. I have installed them in 2 different machines. Do not get the OEM version, get this one instead and use the SATA cable that is included.
