Q: Does it play Blu Ray DVDs? It seems odd to ask, since that's been the standard format for years, but a lot of these things seem to lack that feature

A: Hi DA Learn, thanks for reaching out about Asus ZenDrive SDRW-08U9M-U DVD-Writer - External - Black - DVD-RAM/±R/±RW Support - 24x CD Read/24x CD Write/24x CD Rewrite. This will play DVD formatted disks but not Blu Ray. Though they look similar Blu Ray disks hold more data on them than DVD's so you will want to find one that specifies Blu Ray and if it can read Blu Ray it will read DVD's and CD's as well. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7am-11pm CST.

It functions as it should. As a unit of peripheral equipment it looks good too.
Can play DVDs for my Mac mini.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Will at least play back DVDs on my Mac mini with Sonoma OS, but could be better. Seems like the driver needs updating for it to be 100% compatible with latest Sonoma 14. Haven’t tried recording a disc with it yet.
Works OK w/macOS, but could be better.

After having to return a similar LG product because it wouldn’t work with my Mac mini having Apple silicon- I tried this one. I haven’t burned anything yet, but I’ve copied some files. I can use software to open the drawer, but I have to manually close it. Can ASUS provide a firmware update for macOS Sonoma 14.1.2 (current version). I really don’t want to return this one either and go to yet another competitor. Thanks!
WORKS JUST FINE w/my Mac mini on Mac OS 14.1.1

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having had to return an LG external BR because it wouldn't work w/my Mac mini, I thought that I'd give this Asus a try. Woohoo! It works! Yes, this model doesn't do BR, but it works! Thanks Asus for keeping the Mac user in mind, and enabling this to work with Apple Silicon. Woohoo!

It does not play DVDs. It only stores data. I'm disappointed. I wanted one that plays DVDs and CDs.

I'm using it to load software on a new pc and so far it's performed well, no problems.
Works perfect if you need one!

Works great, a little difficult to see the model and serial number to find the driver online, but it would be helpful to a scan code to access it. No issues at all.
Convenient

I purchased this external optical drive because my case doesnt have a spot for an optical drive. Its super great to use to watch movies with and its so light and thin. I really like how simple it is to hook up and operate. Just plug in the provided usb cable and the drive powers on then just press the button to open it and push the drawer back in to close it.
