For Mac, you can get a 5.25 Internal Blu-Ray drive and an external optical drive enclosure. For Blu-Ray drives you can choose between the ASUS BW-16D1ht 16x blu-ray writer or the LG WH16NS40 16x Blu-Ray Writer. With the right firmware, the ASUS and LG can also Rip 4K UHD discs. If you'll just be ripping standard 1080P Blu-Ray, Pioneer is also a good choice but for now Pioneer cannot Rip 4K UHDs. For enclosures, you may opt for either the OWC external enclosure or the Vantec enclosure. Personally, I prefer the OWC.
