Hash check error workaround?

I started ripping titles using MakeMKV onto my Mac after flashing my Drive. I ripped two discs today, tried to get a third one, and it was unable to rip the third title due to something called an "M2TS hash check error." I tried ripping the same title twice and it gave me that error twice. This third disc was from the same boxset as the other two titles, so I am not sure why it is giving me this issue. Is there a workaround for this, or should I just let my UHD Drive rest for a while?

That's a read errors related to the disc or drive
The usual steps are

Clean the disc with a damp lint free microfiber cloth and dry with another
Replace the disc
Clean the drive by opening it and cleaning lasers with alcohol on something lint free cleaning discs are a joke don't use them
After that replace the drive if none of that works

I'll assume it's an issue with the disc, as my Drive is relatively new and I've only ripped two films so far. Thanks for the advice!
