Check out our buyers guide for more information on what you should look for in an optical drive. The Pioneer BDR-XS06 Blu-ray Burner is a shiny, silver drive. Its a tiny 5.3 square, only.7 tall, with a silver top and sides, and a black underside. The bottom has two rubberized feet that run the width of the device, keeping it stable on slippery surfaces, nice if youre using it away from your desk. The silver outer shell doesnt smudge easily, so itll look nice without constant cleaning. Blu Ray Pioneer Burner Portable Drive CanWhen you pick it up nothing feels loose, and it inspires confidence that this portable drive can safely absorb some jostling while youre on the road. Its a slot loading drive, which works exactly the way youd expect. It may be personal preference, but slot loading systems seem cleaner and less fussy than clamshell or tray systems. The back side has two ports, a USB 3.0 micro-B and a port for a DC power input (not included with the drive). The drive also comes with a micro-B to USB-A cord, making it easy to connect the Pioneer BDR-XS06 to your computer. We just plugged the USB cord into the Blu-ray burner and the computer and it was ready to go.

We inserted the installation disc into the BDR-XS06 to get the process started. When the drive mounted the disc, it showed a window with the application and an alias for the applications folder. When we opened the app, the only setup step was registration, and then we were ready to go. This model works right out of the box with both Windows and MacOS with little to no additional fuss.
