Hi guys,
I'm looking to replace my old Corsair 200r case and am looking at something without a 5.25" drive as my need for a blu ray drive is decreasing, but I'd still like to have the option.
Can anyone recommend an external blu ray reader for use with MakeMKV? Ideally is would be usb powered.

Many things can cause this take some time to figure it out and it will be $85 well spent

Re: Looking for an external blu ray drive
I think I may have jumped the gun....my enclosure arrived and it seems to now be working, although I've only got one disc to hand (Seven Worlds One Planet).
It's on firmware v1.04, is this ok or will it need flashing? And if so how do I do that?
