Can I use multiple drives?

Post by carlobenavides »

Can I use multiple drives? I have thousands of 4k blurays I need to rip to a NAS how many drives can I use? I am planning on connecting them via usb and a thunderbolt dock or multiple docks. Please send me a list of the fastest drives as well I don't want to be ripping my collection for years.... lol :lol:

Yes. It's built in to MakeMKV. When it detects multiple drives it can access, you can tell it to ASK which drive to assign to a particular copy. You will be running a separate task for each drive being used.

Practically, I've found 4 to be the maximum for a single machine, because of data flow and answering questions.
