Looks like it'll handle any Blu-Ray blank you can throw at it, too bad the blanks are still expensive.
For the purposes of calculating a maximum CAV data rate, how fast is the disc spinning at 4x CLV, at the beginning (inner ring) of the disc?
Nice review!

Nice review Kip, looks like a very good Blu-Ray burner and 16x DVD burning, woot!

Thanks. I'm jealous, as I only have the previous generation's non-SATA model. Although I can't complain due to the price I got it for.

The 200s is a nice drive; I have been using it as my primary burner for all projects and it is holding up nicely.
