Some people are saying I shouldn’t buy a Slim External BD Burner if I want to burn good quality discs, because they are crap and the discs will die sooner. Is that true?

Is it a better option to buy an internal drive and use some kind of sata to usb external adapter?

I’d prefer the SLIM USB one, but if the burn quality is really worse, I will consider an internal as external…

    The slim drives have practically nothing in them.

    The lasers won’t be worse or better but as there is “less drive” they may have a shorter life if they get hotter, that would not really affect burn quality.

    I don’t like slim drives because of the low quality cost cut mechanism Vs the laser.

    I simply like bigger gears
