    well, he's a comic book reader, so he does comics

    impecable goes well with my old Antec 200 V2 case yeah it's not young but it's cool to mount a brand new powerful PC in a case that dates back to 2010 and given that water cooling and AIOs are ridiculous unless you have an overclocked I9 which is also ridiculous the old Antec does the job perfectly!

    ASUS BC-12D2HT BLACK (BULK)

    Device arrived safely on Reunion Island by Chronopost!

    It's great for playing Blu-ray films. Sometimes the film stops playing if the Blu-ray is dirty or scratched: it's better to make an ISO image of the Blu-ray with DVDFab on the disc before watching the film in this case (or use the DVDFab UHD Drive Tool to play 4K UHD Blu-rays: it works well with this Blu-ray player).

    Bluray player

    Works perfectly with CDs, DVDs and Blurays. Slightly noisy, but nothing unusual for an optical drive.

    Engraving of various media

    I use Freemake almost all the time... The burner accepts all double-layer dvds but not "classic" dvds in "convert then burn" mode; Firmware problem according to Wondershare too. I had to install Alcohol 120 which would have installed something that made this possible.
    I had to convert to ISO and then burn the iso to DVD. It's not restrictive, but it's weird.

    Be careful NOT to GRAVE Blu-Rays!

    Be careful NOT to scratch Blu-Rays!! contrary to what ASUS says on its own page. That's a bit limiting!
