I'm seriously considering the Verbatim Slim 4K Drive -

The only thing that I'm concerned about is how fast it can rip Blu-rays and 4K UHDs, especially in contrast to other drivers.
What is your experience like with these drivers?

For most people, the question would be "does it read disks?"

It has a Pioneer BDR-UD04 in the enclosure. You can go for it.

Yeah I've read some posts, albeit older (2020/2021) that specify the Pioneer BDR-UD04 as not being effective at ripping $k UHDs.

Interesting - does that mean that other dvd ripping programs can utilize this drive or is it only MakeMKV that is the exception?
