Hi,
it's almost impossible to find a Pioneer Drive here in Europe, they are nowhere to be found. After looking a bit into it i thought having a high qualitiy drive like the BDR-S13E-X would be nice, but the only thing that's possible for me is getting the JP versions from Ebay. Afaik they have a different Regioncode.
I never tried ripping Blurays and wanted to get into it now, so is that a problem for MKV or not? Also what about the firmware with Pioneers, i read about a year old entrys about mkv having problem with newer versions, is that still a thing?
Alternatively i can try to get a Verbatim 43888, but idk if a slim drive is good enough to last a long time
