NEED HELP w newly purchased LGWH16NS60
Posted: Tue Sep 16, 2025 11:54 pm
I am new to this so please do not beat me up to hard this has been a lot to learn. I recently purchased a new drive for my computer (Ebay) where I found a drive that was highly preferred and reccomended, the LGWH16NS60. It was advertised as already being flashed and ready with the correct firmware. Anyways, I installed it today into my upgraded Optiplex and MakeMKV recognized the drive and I began to start my first BluRay rip with the new drive. It started to rip then began making a noise repeatedly. It eventually "locked up" and made no new progress. I switched to a different Bluray and this time it will not get passed the 1st stage of scanning the disc. This is contstantly my issue now.
Did I do something wrong? Below is the specs that are listed on the program screen. Perhaps I missed a step in installation?
