Hi,

I'm looking for an external bluray burner for my new Imac.

Does anyone have a recommendation?

I looked at the devices from LG. Initially, I went for the BP06LU10, however, I have read that unless you are using the way too short (55cm) USB cable, you will run into issues when burning.

The LG BE12LU30 only achieves full speed when used via esata and the BP40NS20 does not have very good reviews.

So far I'm considering the Samsung SE-506AB/TSBD, as the Asus BW-12D1S-U is too big and bulky.
