Re: Flashing Asus BW-16D1HT

Oh okay, so flashing it to the Asus 3.10 firmware is alright then? I don't need to first flash the WH16 firmware like the SDF thread says?

I can put up with the sleep bug I guess, I'll just not leave a UHD disc in there for 2 mintutes.

Is a DVD drive worth it in additional to a BD drive?

Sorry, not sure if this is the right place to ask this but was just wondering if it's worth getting just a regular DVD drive too. I have a lot of DVDs in addition to blu-rays and UHDs and was thinking maybe it's worth getting just a regular DVD drive for those to save some wear and tear on the BD dr...

Re: Help choosing a drive?

Hey, sorry been a couple weeks since my last reply. I was all set on trying my luck and just ordering that ASUS drive I saw on Amazon, as that'd give me some buyer protection at least. I was going to wait until the new year to order, but then they went out of stock which got me really bummed, as I c...

Re: Help choosing a drive?

Oh okay, that doesn't sound that bad than I guess. I might just try get that ASUS one I saw on Amazon, it seems the most easily available to me and they usually have pretty good customer protection in my experience. I checked my Verbatim 43888 in makemkv and according to that it's a Pioneer BDR-UD04...

Re: Help choosing a drive?

Oh I see, that's interesting then. There is one Asus drive I see, the ASUS BW-16D1HT, that seems relatively in-stock some places, I guess it's one of the LG drives inside? Would this be an alright choice? It's just that flashing guide that says in big bold words right at the start " The recomme...

Re: Help choosing a drive?

Ah I see, thanks for the info. So, most Pioneer drives with a manufacture date before Dec 2022 should be somewhat safe then? Is there much difference in quality between the various models? And yeah taking a look more recently, they are getting kind of expensive 0_0 What about the LG drives, they see...
