A few years ago, I bought a UHD drive here on the forum: the “PIONEER BDR-S12U.” It “mostly” worked pretty well. But over the last two years, it's gotten worse and worse. Lots of read errors, I/O errors, SCSI errors...
What helped was restarting the PC, cleaning the disc (even though there was no visible dirt), reinserting the disc, and trying again, and again, and again. Eventually, I’d get lucky and the copy would work. Sometimes I’d just exchange the disc on Amazon, and the replacement would work right away. It was all pretty strange.
Anyway, here’s the situation. Seven days ago, “Avatar 3”-> no problem. And now I’m trying to add the "Transformers 7 Movie Collection" to my media collection; so far, I’ve only managed to move two discs. And I’ve been at it for almost a week.

I know it doesn't help right now, but it's incredibly annoying. You buy some UHD Movie you can't really use. What a shame that the movie market has become so complicated.
