Hi, I'm about to buy a second hand Blu-ray drive and I'm unsure if it will work in MakeMKV.
The model in the sticker is MD-8102-U3, not the MD-8107S-U3-UHD [or UHDB] so that's a first red flag, but it reports back to MakeMKV as BD-RE BU40N.
Is it one of the compatible drives? I guess it might not support the 4k UHD Bluray… or does it? seller says it does… I'd also like to be able to read 3D Blu-rays with it.
It does have the correct drive platform [MT1959] so that's something…
Any help would be greatly appreciated since I can't find much info on the Archgon drives, their drive names look really similar and I'm a bit lost.
Second hand Archgon Blu-ray not what it seems? Should I buy it or not?

I have not yet bought it, I'm thinking about it.Billycar11 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 20, 2022 11:47 pmsee guide below or get an automated flasher from me or Marty
Would it support Bluray UHD? Or is it just something like "only DVD uhd".
The model on the sticker is not matching what it should be able to do.

Yeah it does… and that's actually the weird thing about it.
I might actually risk it and buy it.
