(Asmcom:) Pioneer BDR-S12UHT with Vantec DX2, Cheap Shipping, Worldwide Service, Excellent Service!!!

Post by asmcom »

Pioneer BDR-S12UHT available with Vantec NST-540S3-BK. Vantec's newest Model with new

Vantec DX NST-540S3-BK USB 3.0 5.25" External Enclosure. Fitted with Pioneer 5.25" BDR-S12UHT, now £239.99 minus 5% = £227.99 plus postage for all MakeMKV forum members.

The new Vantec DX2 model now uses a new updated communications interface PCB. The newly designed PCB incorporates the JMS578 USB 3.1 Gen1 to SATA 6Gb/s bridge controller. It provides a low-power and high-performance solution for optical disc drives. The JMS578 supports a higher data transmission rate and lower power consumption than its predecessors. The Pioneer BDR-S12UHT fitted to a DX2 enclosure is a brilliant combination with its sleek and stylish design. Performance is of a very high standard, and the quality of the Pioneer drive combined with the newly designed DX2 is a clear winner.

When you insert a disc in the Pioneer drive, it reads the 4k disc within 2 to 3 seconds; none of these loud seeking noises for 10 to 15 seconds that you get with the Hitachi or ASUS desktop drives just reads the disc immediately. I can walk away and know when I come back that the disc will be completed successfully and there will be no read errors. The same goes for the Hitachi BU40N, which is also an amazing wee drive.

I ordered a Pioneer BDR-S12XLT Cross-Flashed to BDRS12UHT on firmware 1-03 (drive only) from Asmcom and received it a few days ago.
Delivery & Packaging were simply perfect. Drive is in excellent condition and works very well. :D
My conclusion: Ascom is a top seller.

What a great service. I emailed Asmcom asking for advice on the best drive for my needs and they got back to me very quickly with suggestions.

I ended up ordering a Pioneer BDR-XS07TS along with a MakeMKV licence and it works perfectly. They were even kind enough to upgrade the postage for free and I received the drive the next day.

Very helpful and a pleasure to deal with, I highly recommend them, you can't go wrong with Asmcom. Thanks you so much.

:D I have today received my Pioneer drive BDR UD04-1-14. Together with my MAKEMKV Licence from Asmcom.

The whole process was straightforward and regardless of your experience you are led by the hand throughout.

The drive arrived safely and was very well packed, in fact it would be easier to break into the bank of England!

Communication is very good and ALL my queries where quickly answered. It's fair to say ASMCOM provides a very professional service and you can buy with complete confidence.

I just registered to detail my experiences with Asmcom.

I bought a MakeMKV license some time ago, as I had decided to migrate my entire collection from *.iso to *.mkv (because there is nothing that can play *.iso files from a server, at least not to my standards). This was quite some endeavour, but I finally completed it last month. And then I thought that I also need be able to rip my UHD BD. I searched the forum, read the flashing thread and a lot of other information. After that, I decided that I didn't have the time and patience anymore to source the hardware and give the flashing a try and maybe end up with a bricked drive...

So, I contacted Asmcom on Sunday evening and asked for recommendations. On Monday morning I was greeted by a very friendly e-mail with tons of helpful information. 2.5h and a few e-mails later everything was settled and agreed upon. In the evening I had further information, the tracking ID for the package, and also my shipping had been upgraded! And today already I received the package. Everything was well-packed and very nice looking.

The drive (Pioneer BDR-UD04 with firmware 1.14, item #13) was recognized instantly, and it is really quiet and also unbelievably fast! Just for testing, I decided to rip using AnyDVD HD (to *.iso). This was completed in less than an hour ("The Big Lebowski", 4K UHD with HDR10, 20th anniversary edition, a little over 60GB). Compared to my other ripping drives, this is a completely different ballpark. For DVD, I have an old but reliable Optiarc AD-7710H (slim, internal). This is really slow, but reads almost all DVD. For BD, I have a Toshiba/Samsung SN-406AB (slim, external USB 3.0). This one is faster, but it still takes more than an hour for a BD (and it is less reliable for DVD than the Optiarc). So, I was pleasantly surprised by the Pioneer's performance. Mounting the *.iso with Virtual CloneDrive, I converted it to *.mkv with MakeMKV. Neither AnyDVD HD nor MakeMKV encountered a single error or issue during the process.

Overall, this was one brilliant transaction and experience, from start (very nice and helpful communication) to finish (a product working exactly as advertised)! I cannot recommend this seller enough, I wouldn't hesitate a second to buy from Asmcom again!

Thanks again! :)

We appreciate such a lovely review and the time taken to write this. This combination of the BDR-UD04 and the premium Vantec has been very successful for us. We wish you well with your new drive.
