Our take on the Ultra Slim 4K Blu-Ray Burner External USB 3.0 Drive

This is a slim external tray-load optical drive that connects over USB 3.0 and reads Blu-ray discs, including 4K Blu-ray. Despite the burner name, the listed write support covers only CDs and DVDs, so treat Blu-ray playback as its main job. It has a small 2 MB cache, typical of bus-powered portable drives. At $88.99 at Best Buy as of November 5, 2026, it sits at the low end of what 5 stores charge for it new.

Questions and answers

Can this drive burn Blu-ray discs?
The listed write support covers CDs and DVDs only. Blu-ray and 4K Blu-ray are read formats here, so check before buying if you need to burn Blu-ray.
Will it play 4K Blu-ray movies on my laptop?
It reads 4K Blu-ray discs, but you need playback software that supports 4K and a display that meets the copy protection requirements. Most laptops do not include that software.
Does it work with a Mac?
USB optical drives generally work on Macs for data discs, but Blu-ray playback on macOS needs third-party software. Confirm support for your macOS version before buying.
Is $88.99 a good price?
That is the best new price among 5 stores as of November 5, 2026, and it is at the low end of the recent range. It is a fair price for a Blu-ray-reading slim drive.
What comes in the box?
Expect the drive and a USB cable. Playback software and Blu-ray media are usually not included.
Do I need an external power adapter?
No. It is a bus-powered USB drive, so it draws power from the port. Use a USB 3.0 port directly rather than an unpowered hub.
