  • Abstract:  Sonys latest Blu-ray drive pushes the limits of the Blu-ray burning at its physical limits. The new Sony BWU-300S Blu-ray Disc burner offers 8x recording for the latest 6x BD-R media, which means that you will be able to burn 25GB of data in less tha...

  Published: 2008-11-14, review by: Computerpoweruser.com

  • Abstract:  This is the third-generation BD burner from Sony, and it’s built for speed. The drive can push 6X media to 8X (35.96MBps). Sony says you might start to see blank 6X BD-Rs and BD-R DLs early this year, but the company had to slip us some media pulled fr...

  • At around £245, the Sony BWU-300S's biggest problem is its price. If it was £40 or so cheaper we’d have few problems recommending it as one of the best available. Alas, given the low price of the still excellent Pioneer, the BWU-300S f...

  • Der Sony BWU-300S ist ein sehr schneller Blu-Ray-Brenner, der seine hohe Brenngeschwindigkeit (noch) nicht voll nutzen kann, da entsprechende 8fach-BD-Rohlinge fehlen. Auch als DVD- und CD-Brenner überzeugte der Sony BWU-300S mit zuverlässiger und rec...
