Mac Os Support For Connectivity Of Portable Media



I am biased. I have been a Mac guy since I bought my first one in 1984, before there was Windows. II occasionally use the Windows machines at work, and they are horrible. The software is poorly written, uncreative, unintuitive, and soul crushing. I think it really makes people stupider when they use Windows machines. It's like listening to pop music.

By 'Associated Utilities' I am not sure if you mean software in general or 'Utilities', which are more maintenance or system software related items. There are definitely more Windows Software Titles, but there is no shortage of good software for macs these days. Also PC software can run on a mac in various ways, with emulation software, or macs can just boot directly into windows; the converse is not generally so true. Most (not all) professional audio, video, and commercial art is done on Macs. Windows still rules the corporate non-creative world because the machines needed are cheaper and less powerful and Apple doesn't make lower end cheaper machines. Microsoft Office is the mainstay of that corporate world; there are Mac versions of the Office Apps that communicate well with PC's.

Price$135

The BDR-XD07UHD is one of the world's smallest and lightest BD/DVD/CD portable burners supporting 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray playback using CyberLink software. The drive supports BDXL and M-DISC format. The ultra-compact 133×133mm USB 3.0 drive can read and write to all BDXL discs1 including BD-R triple-layer 100GB media, BD-R quad-layer 128GB media, and BD-RE triple layer 100GB media, as well as conventional Blu-ray discs (single-layer 25GB media and dual-layer 50GB media). The portable device, measuring only 133mm (W) X 133mm (D) X 14.8mm (H) and weighing a mere 230g, also has the ability to be powered directly via USB (no AC adaptor required). USB Type-C conversion cable included that enables to connect with Windows PC and Mac.

The BDR-XD07UHD includes CyberLink Software, “CyberLink Media Suite 10” only for Windows OS. It is needed to be downloaded through the WEB. (https://jpn.pioneer/ja/pcperipherals/bdd/eula/cyberlink_media_suite/en.php) Product key for free download is included. PowerDVD™14 delivers award winning playback software and will even upscale standard-definition content to high-definition quality. PowerDirector® 15 LE allows you to import your home movies, edit them, and then upload them to social media sites. Power2Go® 8 gives you the ability to burn your valuable files to Blu-ray (including triple and quad layer BDXL discs), DVD or CD media.

With BDXL and M-DISC support, you can now back up your files with fewer discs than ever before, and since the drive is portable and USB bus powered, all of this can be done virtually anywhere. The BDR-XD07UHD can write up to 6x2 on BD-R and BD-R dual-layer (DL) media. One BD-R DL disc can hold the same amount of data as 10 DVDs (single-layer). One QL disc can hold the same amount of data as 27 DVDs (single-layer). The drive is also backward compatible to read and write to most DVD and CD recordable media. Click on the 'Specifications' tab to see all supported media formats and the read and write/burn speeds achievable for each format.

The BDR-XD07UHD also has unique features such as PowerRead™³, Auto Quiet mode, and PureRead3+⁴. PowerRead can provide smoother movie playback when a disc has fingerprints or minor surface scratches. Auto Quiet mode intelligently adjusts the disc rotation speed to reduce noise (useful while watching movies or listening to music), and PureRead automatically adjusts the drive parameters to minimize sound glitches during music playback. Auto Quiet mode and PureRead can be configured as well as enabled and disabled with the Pioneer BDR-XD07UHD Drive Utility.

Long-term data protection with M-DISC™ Support

Support reading and writing M-DISC™(DVD, BD: SL25GB/DL50GB/TL100GB) introduced by Millenniata, Inc.

Compact, well-balanced body

Clamshell type that enables the easy takein and takeout of a disc in a narrow place. 230g super lightweight and 133×133mm CD size compact body

“PureRead 3+” that faithfully reads audio CDs

Scratches and fingerprints on your CDs can cause them to skip. A drive normally makes a calculated guess at the unreadable data and attempts to correct this to match the original music. However, this is not 100% accurate. PureRead3+, when enabled, makes the drive reread the obscured data to extract the original music as accurately as possible.

Store more data

Up to 156% more data storage capacity than a 50GB Dual Layer Blu-ray Disc. The BDXL™ format supports BDXL Blu-ray media (including 128GB Quadruple Layer (QL)¹ and 100GB Triple Layer (TL)¹ Blu-ray Disc™).

Faster burning

Connectivity

Up to 16x2 writing on BD-R single-layer discs, 14x on BD-R DL discs, and 8x writing on BD-R triple-layer discs.

An eco-friendly drive

Smaller packaging- saves resources and fuel transportation. Reduced power consumption on external USB drives which allows for eco-friendly USB bus-powered drives.

Smooth movie playback

Scratches, fingerprints and other abnormalities on the surface of a disc can sometimes cause Blu-ray and DVD movie playback to stop. When a PowerRead enabled drive is not able to read through obstructed areas of a disc, it will attempt to move forward quickly to the next available data point, resulting in smoother Blu-ray and DVD movie playback3.

A smarter drive

Pioneer drives with Auto Quiet mode, monitor how they are being used and adjust their speed automatically – high speed for data transfer, and low speed for music or movie playback.

Wide blank media support

Portable

Pioneer strives to have best-in-class performance over a wide range of media – our drives achieve this for a large variety of BD and DVD media. Refer to the drive’s media support list for all supported media and the write speed that can be achieved.
