Re: Verbatim 43888 - Amazon UK
Everything seems to be working as expected. Ripped a 70.8 GB file in 1 hour and 16 minutes, Not sure how that translates to speed rating, but no issues so far, I'm happy.
I used a powered USB Hub for good measure. Not sure if it's necessary.
This one: AMAZON - Atolla 4-Port USB 3.0 Hub
If anyone needs specific info, just ask. I'll try and get what I am able. Thanks.

Hi there, the Verbatim 4388 has been recommend to me on another forum. Can I just confirm with you it works with MakeMKV?Jeff_WNY wrote: ↑Wed Sep 25, 2024 1:47 amEverything seems to be working as expected.

It is LibreDrive-compatible straight out of the box, although I have discovered that any discatt.dat file created with one of these drives contains an incorrect Volume ID (VID). Personally, I've never had a problem using mine actually for ripping, but the drive is also considered to be "power hungry". So maybe connect it to a powered USB hub, and never allow it to run for political office?

thanks for the heads up. Would it run fine off a PC?MrPenguin wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 11:52 amIt is LibreDrive-compatible straight out of the box, although I have discovered that any discatt.dat file created with one of these drives contains an incorrect Volume ID (VID).

i think he does mean plugging it into a regular PCCoopervid wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 8:10 pmWeird guess in my opinion. That's not "off a PC".
i would say as long as its direct to the motherboard it "should" work but thats not always the case.
i dont recommend using front usb ports they unusually use cheap thin gauge wire that drops alot of voltage

Re: Verbatim 43888 - Amazon UK
I know the practical difference is small but the VID is encrypted, not incorrect. The Verbatim 43888 is perfectly capable of retrieving both types of disc metadata values for all AACS 1.0 and AACS 2.x discs.MrPenguin wrote: ↑Sun Oct 13, 2024 11:52 amIt is LibreDrive-compatible straight out of the box, although I have discovered that any discatt.dat file created with one of these drives contains an incorrect Volume ID (VID).

Re: Verbatim 43888 - Amazon UK
I got mine from Scan UK for a bit less, but it failed to rip a BD of mine. Gonna try another few today. Annoyingly it comes supplied with a very short USB cable!daveyboyNo1 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 19, 2024 10:33 amhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07MTP9VKX? ... asin_title
