External drive for DVD and BD only

[vicious]

Hello guys.

I wan`t to rip my bought DVD and BD collection. So i can use them with my NAS. NO UHD!
Maybe you can give me a good advice which product i should buy. Im located in Germany.

Am I understanding correctly that any drive can be used to rip DVDs and BDs?
Only UHD drives need to be flashed? Right?

Hi.

I recommend you get a Pioneer. Last year I got this on Amazon: https://www.vinpowerdigital.com/product ... r-bdr-212v.
I use it with a usb-sata adapter.

It is also flashable if you are interested in UHD in the future, but only if the burner was produced before 2023 if I remember correctly.
