Hello, I guess disney has forced me into getting a 4k drive to play atmos tracks thats only on the 4k disc, so trying to find one on amazon. Would I be able to wait to save up for more amazon giftcards or should I buy one now? the only two that look trust worthy are

https://www.amazon.com/XRTFORE-External ... ref=sr_1_9
I've seen the other posts about guaranteed to work drives but those are so expensive.
Thanks.
Are any "4K" slim bluray drives on amazon trustworthy?

I can confirm that the first link is a valid drive. I bought that same one like a month ago although it took several weeks to ship (I finally got it last week). I was able to flash it and confirmed I could rip 4K discs with it.

I just bought the XRTFORE external 4K UHD drive on Amazon. It had a BDRE BU40N drive with 2016 firmware. It successfully flashed to Libre with the SDFtool flasher and I've used Makemkv on 9 UHD BD-100 discs so far with no problems. The drive is stated to also support BDXL 128GB discs. Read rate was steady at 6.0x and I plugged the drive into a powered USB hub. Very happy with my purchase and the information and resources here to flash the drive.
