La lecture de blu-ray et CD fonctionne nickel par contre je n'ai pas vérifié sa compatibilité concernant la possibilité de flash pour du 4k donc attention. ## Frequently Bought Together - ASUS BW-16D1X-U external 16X Blu-ray writer, USB 3.0, Mac Compatible, M-DISC support, Disc Encryption, Unlimited Webstorage(12 months), NERO Backitup, E-Media - Verbatim 43823 25GB 4x M-Disc BD-R - 5 Pack Jewel Case - Verbatim 43811 25GB 6x BD-R SL Datalife Inkjet Printable - 25 Pack Spindle --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/339681479-bw-12d1s-u-external-12x-blu-ray-writer-usb-3](https://www.desertcart.be/products/339681479-bw-12d1s-u-external-12x-blu-ray-writer-usb-3) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-07-27*
