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

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.
