Best 3 layer drive
Posted: Mon Apr 29, 2024 9:20 pm
I’ve had a Asus BW-16D1HT for years and it’s definitely spent a good amount of time messing me around having to retry several times when trying to create backups.
Recently got the Jurassic World ultimate collection 6 movie set and cannot get it to backup the 3 layer fallen kingdom or dominion disks with failing on several m2ts files on each, tried dusting the disks, running them under water and using pure isopropyl alcohol that I use for cleaning my 3D printer.
Considering a BU40N or a Verbatim 43888, but wanted to check here before getting a new drive for the “difficult disks”? I’d like something that is better at reading 3 layer and bad quality disks.
If the 43888 is worth it, I’ve seen on here there are people selling them with confirmed working firmware, but if I bought one new from a U.K. distributor is this a drive that can come with firmware that no longer works? I’d like to shop where I can get a drive replaced if I have any issues during the warranty period.
