Just got my drive from Frank, and it is a beaut. Seriously, everything just worked right out of the box, and has already ripped several movies, and I've had it less than 12 hours.

I am going back and forth on this. Really wish you had a SATA based drive in stock, as that's really what I am after. I don't "know" the model billycar11 is selling (slim-line vs. 5 1/4"), but if it is a 5 1/4" sized drive/chassis, there's a 99% chance you could remove the drive...

the drives are in just waiting on support for the fw flash method im using

Oh sweet, definitely looking forward to getting one.

Ah, yeah, didn't think about libraries. I wish that decent drives didn't seem to be unobtainium anymore. I bought mine right before they started shipping with newer firmware (people started talking about that like 3 weeks after I got mine), and kinda wish I had got another drive back then. I am temp...

Are stickers on discs that common? None of mine have any stickers (I personally hate stickers, so avoid them whenever possible)

How are the XD08 compared to the XS07U? I currently have a XS07U, but it seems to be really picky about what disks it will work with, and even on stuff it does read it will often spit the disc out multiple times before it starts reading it. Doesn't matter DVD, Bluray, or UHD, it does the same stuff,...

Sent in a copy of the dump to the email, but also have it here. The latest KEYDB.cfg file contains an entry for your disk, but I'm not convinced it is correct. Could you also provide the AACS/MKB_RO.inf file from your physical UHD disk please? The copy of this file inside your TGZ dump file has bee...

Yeah, I remember that some drives have an internal fuse that prevents region switching. Like one of my old drives had a limit of 3 region changes before it would permanently lock in at that region.

Trying to get things setup to automate my work flow a bit more. Basically the plan is to have a script with common functions, and then setup udev and other things kick off the script when I pop in a disc, etc. Right now my normal work flow is to use makemkvcon to make a decrypted backup, and then en...
