A Disc Read Error Occurred Windows 7 Laptop

..first 24 hours..used only 7%..couldn't ask for anything better...

With one word of caution. AT THIS WRITING AMD processors support the new PCIE 4.0 standard that this drive operates on. Intel processors are not scheduled to be released that support this new protocol until 2021. I paired this drive up with a non PCIE 4.0 Intel chipset (based on the product's advertisement that it is backwards compatible). I can say truthfully it is not backwards compatible. When I employed this drive I received error, after error, after error from Windows 10, notwithstanding that Samsung has not yet even released a Windows driver for this drive. It used the Windows 10 default 2006 Microsoft driver to operate with. Once I took it out of that system and put in a PCIE 3.0 drive that the system supported, all errors disappeared. Intel processor users will just have to wait until later this years when Intel chipsets supporting this new protocol are are mainstream.

Seems best to start Windows first and then plug USB in to avoid error RECOGNITION. Only have had for 2 weeks, hopefully it won't have issues later. Using the Original packaging to store it for now, but it deserves a proper case. Maybe next month. Storing and accessing media for DVD burner, no problems.

Using one as C: in my Windows 10 PC. Simple swap for a rotating disc, solid and fast performance. The second is in an external eSATA drive enclosure (OWC Mercury Elite Pro, B&H #OWCME3QHKIT0) as backup for critical files with my Synology DS1515+ server. Much less power and heat compared to a rotating disc. Happy with both units and the great service from B&H.

I was pleasantly surprised by the sound - especially the warm bass. Very well constructed. It came up with a device error until I read the guide and worked out I had to install the specific driver from the manufacture. In the end, not a big deal. It does produce nice rich tones when speaking close to it. It is on the heavy side, but I think that is a good thing. You can't go wrong with this one.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have an old…talking 10+ year old MacBook that runs slow and annoying. When I saw this labelwriter wasn’t plug and play I was weary. Downloading the software was fast and simple. This is not a Bluetooth or wireless printer and uses a USB to connect. The whole setup took maybe 5 minutes and that was my user error and lack of reading directions. The good news is Dymo has multiple stickers saying don’t plug in until software is downloaded. So you have to actively and consciously make the error. I didn’t read the directions on how to spool the labels. Once I read it I felt silly. Overall directions and setup are super simple. Comes with everything you need to get setup. I’ve wanted one of these for a long time and it’s worth the money.

I love my laptop, its fast and works great. My desktop is Windows 7 pro and this comes with windows 8.1 home. I just need to upgrade it to pro and I'm good to go.

This all in one is nice because it includes everything a laptop does plus you can actually read the screen.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] an able to read UHD disc and watch 4K UHD movies HDR

I first read many of the reviews written by present owners. I then went on line & placed my order for in store pickup. Once I set the unit up and connected it to my 4K UHD TV and turned it on, I was blown away. No matter the disc format it loaded rapidly. The dvd and blu-ray movies were brighter as well as more vivid color wise. When I played a 4K disc, I was stunned at the quality of the image. The sound quality was absolutely amazing, detailed, and immersive. It clearly out performed the LG blu-ray player that I had been using over the last 3 years. The remote control is lightning fast without any delay whatsoever. I have always loved Sony’s DVD players/recorders and now there 4K UHD player remains a high quality product. I highly and strongly recommend the UBP-X800M2 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray / DVD player for anyone looking to upgrade from a standard blu-ray player. You will not be disappointed!
