Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2024

But the sleep bug is not that bad to recover from you really do just open close the tray You may have a different problem Maybe but then I don't see what else it can be. My symptom is that when a disk (not necessarily UHD) is left idle in the drive for 2 minutes, the drive stops responding. Can't r...

Re: (Asmcom:) Pioneer UHD 4K Drives From £117.32, Cheap Shipping, Worldwide Service, Excellent Service!!!

I’m deciding between this flimsy-looking slimline drive from an eBay seller and a new, full-size internal drive from ASUS, a brand that's never let me down. My instinct says to go with ASUS, but feedback here makes me wonder if the slimline drive might actually be a better choice? you have to remem...

Re: Asmcom – Feedback/Review

Instead of starting a new thread, I thought I'd piggy back my purchase experience with @asmcom here. Ordered 2 x Pioneer External Blu-ray Slim Writer Drives, Model BDR-XS07TUHD. Paid Monday got them today. Packaging was pretty good: besides the original drive packaging, they came inside a slightly ...

Re: AACS 2.1 support

This worked fine before I updated the OS on my MacBook. And I do not believe the firmware on my Pioneer has changed since it worked Do you have any MakeMKV log files from before you updated your MacBook's OS? I am wondering if the update process quietly updated your drive's firmware at the same tim...

Re: (Asmcom:) Pioneer UHD 4K Drives From £117.32, Cheap Shipping, Worldwide Service, Excellent Service!!!

Any suggestions for an internal Pioneer just for ripping BD 4Ks with makemkv? I missed out at the beginning of the year with Asmcom so would like get something to replace my dead LG before Christmas. I made the mistake of deleting the rips as I had everything 'safe' on my Plex server. Then I f'd up...

Re: Recommendation for best (most reliable and versatile) LibreDrive for 2024?

Subject: Alternative for Item 9 – Recommendation

Hello Jurgen,

Thank you for reaching out; as requested in your email, please find our recommendation as a follow-up to your request to enquire about Item 9 vs Item 6. Your email box is full and we have posted where you originally quoted your enquiry from "Most Reliable & Versatile Drive". Unfortunately, we do not have Item 9 in stock at the moment. However, we recommend Item 6 as an excellent alternative.

Item 6, the BDR-S13EBK, is the exact same drive used in Item 9. The key difference is that Item 9 comes with a fully plastic enclosure and no on-off switch. Item 6 features the Vantec DX2 (model NST-540S3-BK) enclosure, which is primarily made of aluminium. In our opinion, this makes Item 6 a superior option as the enclosure is sturdier and also includes an on/off switch—something Item 9 does not have.

We believe you will be pleased with the quality of Item 6.
