With OEMs LG and Pioneer No Longer Manufacturing Drives

Post by Chris Kelly »

How are we supposed to use our computers and VLC for disc playback once the drive we own dies? Are there ways for PCs to read discs with Blu-ray players, such as the Magnetar UDP-800 or UDP-900, Oppo UDP-203 or UDP-205, Panasonic DP-UB150, DP-UB420, DP-UB450, DP-UB820, or DP-UB9000, Pioneer UDP-LX500 or UDP-LX800, or Sony UBP-X700, UBP-X700U, UBP-X800, UBP-X800M2, UBP-X1000ES, or UBP-X1100ES, such as removing its drive and somehow connecting it via SATA or USB, or a less destructive way such as USB or network connection?
