Update August 2014: top drive, all firings of any type properly even noNamespaceSchemaLocation
Products. No failures when neither read nor write.
I'm using my laptop more than happy've got a 256er mSATA and 'ne second TB disk in it ...
... Only one thing has always bothered me - it had no Blu-ray drive but in return a full HD
Display.
The original built-in DVD drive was somehow imprecise, the data load processes have partly
a very long time (has sounded as if the laser the "track" do not always equal)
and above all, it was compared to my HP drive pretty loud in previous laptop
(Ramp up to speed with some pipes and even when playing also always pretty
rude and loud).
So lace up on laptop's drive.
With the Panasonic UJ-260 all no longer a problem. At the moment a DVD is read in
"Hogfather" - I hear not even hum the part ... sounds more like my fans to lowest
Speed, a very small voice, more is not. Suuuper.
Removal / installation not really a problem at Dell. Two screws on the laptop lid loosen, then
you will find a screw, with the optical drive is fixed. The metal part (holder,
Do not disconnect the drive itself), dranschrauben at the UJ-260 at the same location, the original
Remove diaphragm (hence the drive with an open load expand).
Blu-ray drive, only plug in, boot up the computer and open the drive.
Shutdown, pull out the drive back and then detach the cover from the Blu-ray drive and up
replace it with the original panel. All mechanical "noses" to Dran cliffs of the panel and
the switch for opening match 1: 1.
The thing with the aperture is a little fiddly, you need patience and must end with a
perhaps a bit "pry" flat-head screwdriver, but anything goes.
Approximately 1 hours work, but well worth it.
The UJ-260 was immediately recognized in the BIOS or Windows 8.1, you have to adjust anything.
For some users might one more tip. The first inserted DVD automatically adjusts the country code
a - so beware if DVDs are in the house, for example, have the US country code. After installation
you can still 4x change the country code.
Blu-ray playback software is needed.
Play DVDs funzt with existing software easily but: Blu-Ray Freeware can not coded
Blu-Rays play, windows can do it anyway. So: You have to again good money in your hand.
(See, eg, "PowerDVD" from Pro version)
So, if only because the whisper-quiet operating noise and the excellent
Compatibility with the original DVD burner a thick buy recommendation. I regret the 62 euros no
Second ... and more is now available with the Dell laptop is no longer ...
Oh, nochwas, the drive has been (ie 2 months ago) produced in November 2013, and came in the air cushion
envelope, which in turn came in the Amazon box, ie a so-called. Bulk device ... is way it is.
