Good info, as I see a few around in the stores. Question: Does this generally work with makemkv out of the box for non-UHD blu-ray discs? Looking for a 2nd drive to use with makemkv and have no need for UHD support.

I've since flashed mine from best buy to rip UHD discs, but the spare one I picked up from ebay and haven't flashed yet rips non-UHD discs just fine.

These are back in stock and available for shipping for $92.99. The one I got is the NB52 SVC Code, not the devil spawn NB72. The SVC code was written on the box, so you should not need to open it to find out. After flashing it's reading UHD and it's surprisingly faster than my dying 2018 WH16NS40. It's reading at a consistent 25.9 M/s [6.0X] on my UHD discs under Ubuntu, but seemed to stutter a little under Windows.
