Thanks, will check out your drives. What's the easiest way to check the FW on these drives? Do I have to download the Windows FW updater or does MakeMKV show the FW on these drives or another way?

Also does the serial number or date of manf. give some kind of indication on the ability to rip?

Are these good for triple layer discs? Are there better brands for triple layer where I don't have to worry about firmware issues?
