Ripped a 70GB UHD disc in 47 minutes! I assume the time is variable for every title, but that's pretty good I'd say.

Got my new drive today! I got a May 2020, v1.04 unit. After some fiddling and a couple errors, I flashed the v1.02 WH16NS60MK firmware onto it. LibreDrive is now enabled. The rip speed for HD Blue-Rays is slightly higher than I saw from others. I'm currently ripping a 4K disc so we'll see how that g...

That's what I figured, but I wanted to make sure.

I'll add another reply in a few days once I receive my new drive.

Alright, I'll have to try that.

Just wanted to double check, will this drive be flashable? Here's the Amazon link.

Ah, gotcha. How would I go about cleaning the discs without scratching them?

Just got the other drive today, thankfully the seller has automatic eBay returns so I've just got to print out a label and drop it off in a FedEx box.

I had read that dirty or scratch discs were a potential cause, but I was getting these errors with brand new discs that were spotless. And like I said in my previous post, one of the two blu-rays that MakeMKV failed to read were successfully decrypted by Handbrake and I was able to rip it. I assume ...

Yeah my old drive rips DVDs no problem.

With some Blue-Ray discs I get SCSI errors and MakeMKV isn't able to decrypt them. I just assumed that was my drive revoking the key or whatever. In one instance, HandBrake was able to decrypt a Blue-Ray when MakeMKV was not.

Strange stuff.

Yeah, this was my fear. I'm hoping the eBay seller will be cool about it. I've already found another drive which has v1.0.2 and was manufactured in March of 2017, but I'll have to wait for my current one to be delivered so I can start the return process. Thanks for the confirmation. This outcome suc...

Andrew here, thanks for clicking. Fair warning, you're going to get a short story along with a question so please bare with me. As I mentioned in my title, I recently grabbed an old revision LG WH16NS40. I've always had an interest in ripping my physical media, and I can remember some of my first ex...
