Hi,

i've an external/portable slim usb drive (see topic). My problem is the limited reading speed (only 2x) while ripping blu rays to ssd. I know that the reading/ripping speed is reduced on porpose by the manufactures but i'm very annoyed about that fact.

Is anybody here, who can help with a patched firmware?

I would really appreciate some feedback. Thank you so much for your support.

PM sent for upgrading it for UHD. If the reading speed issue after that is not solved, read this:
