Vantec NexStar

or
OWC

I just discover the Pioneer BDR-S13U-X and for that kind of money I need a good enclosure to match with.

I only know that two units Vantec and OWC.

I think works fine but the new looks more robust.

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
I am looking into purchasing a Pioneer BDR-XS07UHD, and by the looks of this forum, I should have no issues. However, I was looking Pioneers product page and found that there was a firmware update (version 1.02) that was released on 12/21/2022. Should I be reluctant of updating the firmware? Could it possibly block access to rip DVDs and BDs? This forum has been a lot of help!

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
The SDF update time for new firmwares varies. In this particular case, all 8 Pioneer firmwares released yesterday are already integrated in latest SDF.bin and are supported. Sometimes it takes much longer, though...

That's awesome! Thank you for the information
Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
Is there a reason i seem to be having a hard time finding these two BDR-XD07UHD and. BDR-XD06JUHD if i do the price is really high and its like one item. Were they discontinued? Im in the states is it a region thing?
Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
I am a bit overwhelmed. My BP50NB40 - SVC NB52 is supposed to work with Windows or Mac OS. These instructions relate to the SDFtool Flasher, which is an .exe. How do I flash to NB50 1.03-MK on my MacBook Pro? Is there a .dmg out there?

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
No dmg. You could create a VM with Windows 10 64 bit or Win 11 64 bit. Don't forget to add your physical drive before starting VM. See here: viewtopic.php?p=129979#p129979
Otherwise, ask a friend that has a windows PC to help you out.
Cheers

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
If you're comfortable with the command line, you can flash your drive using Terminal in macOS. The instructions are near the bottom of the first post in this thread.
Going the route MartyMcNuts suggested is probably easier.

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
I just saw this one (BDR-XD08UMB-S) on the pioneer site, and it supports UHD, would it be libredrive compatible to rip UHD with makemkv? Also, is it still safe to update firmware on drives like this? Will there be MK firmwares like there were for other drives in the past?

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
are the Pioneer drives US only? Can’t find any of them here in Germany available.
Want to get a second drive that’s no needed to be flashed.
