Hi Asmcom, I am interested in buying a standalone Vantec NST-510S3-BK enclosure for my LG BU40NA drive (shipping to Italy). Since I just registered, PMs are disabled for me. Could you please let me know if available? Thanks!

We have already replied on eBay

We are pleased to confirm that we are expecting a large delivery of our Asmcom Stable Power 5V Power Adapters and Asmcom USB Stable Power Type-C Looms on Monday, 3rd August or Tuesday, 4th August.

We also received the balance of our BP55 and BU40N drive order yesterday, so everything is on schedule for next week.

All currently out-of-stock items will be back in stock as soon as the new shipment arrives.

Kind Regards,

Clare

That's exciting to hear, thanks! To clarify, does the mean I should wait to order since more stock of everything will available soon as well as the US power adapter bundled with drives? Or, when you say that you received the balance of your BP55 and BU40N order that there will be no more of those.

Thanks for the reply Clare.

Yes, within the next 10–14 days we expect to have everything back in stock – including Asmcom Stable Power Looms, Hitachi BP55 & BU40N drives, and power supplies for all countries, including the US.

Just to clarify, these will be the final brand-new Hitachi BU40N drives available. We purchased the last production batches manufactured by Hitachi, consisting mainly of December 2025 production, with a small quantity from September 2025.

So, if you're planning to purchase one, there will be another opportunity once the new shipment arrives. However, once these final batches are sold, there will be no more new Hitachi BU40N drives available.

Hopefully everything will arrive within 10 days, but to be on the safe side, please allow up to 14 days.

Kind Regards,

Asmcom

I was able to get a drive and loving it! Do you have any makemkv keys left to purchase? If so how can we set that up? Thanks.

For anyone considering getting a drive from Asmcom, I can definitely recommend them!

I recently purchased a BU40N Drive and so far it's handled all the discs that I've thrown at it. I'm running MakeMKV on Linux (Fedora) and it's worked without any issues. Thanks Asmcom

Thank you very much, prodactor, for taking the time to leave us such wonderful feedback. It is genuinely appreciated!

RARE OPPORTUNITY – ONLY ONE BRAND-NEW PIONEER BDR-UD04 AVAILABLE!



We've secured ONE brand-new Pioneer BDR-UD04 Ultra HD 4K Blu-ray Writer, and once it's sold, we cannot guarantee we will be able to get another.

With Pioneer having ceased global manufacturing of optical drives, brand-new Pioneer UHD drives are becoming increasingly difficult to source. This is a unique opportunity for one MakeMKV member to secure a brand-new BDR-UD04 professionally configured and ready for UHD ripping.

PIONEER BDR-UD04 – LIBREDRIVE FRIENDLY

This drive is supplied on firmware 1.14 and is LibreDrive friendly. It has proven exceptionally reliable with UHD media, including BD100 3-layer discs. Our testing has shown consistent reading without retries or read errors.

The Pioneer BDR-UD04 is professionally installed in a premium Vantec NST-510S3-BK Super Slim aluminium enclosure, finished in black with an elegant satin finish.

ASMCOM STABLE POWER LOOM INCLUDED

This package also includes our exclusive Asmcom Stable Power Loom, designed specifically to provide clean and stable external power to UHD optical drives while USB handles data communication.

The loom incorporates backfeed protection and helps maximise stability during demanding UHD disc reads, particularly with laptops, Mac Minis, Microsoft Surface systems and computers with lower-powered USB ports.

THE COMPLETE PACKAGE INCLUDES:

1 x Pioneer BDR-UD04 Ultra HD 4K Blu-ray Writer
1 x Premium Vantec NST-510S3-BK Super Slim Enclosure
1 x Asmcom Stable Power Loom
1 x External Power Supply to suit your country

The BDR-UD04 supports UHD Blu-ray, BDXL up to 100GB and M-DISC and is compatible with MakeMKV LibreDrive.

As with all our drives, this BDR-UD04 is individually tested using BD100, BD66, BD50 and DVD media before being securely repackaged for dispatch.

ONLY ONE AVAILABLE

With Pioneer optical drive production now discontinued globally, this really is a rare opportunity to purchase a brand-new Pioneer BDR-UD04 complete with a premium Vantec enclosure, our Stable Power Loom, power supply and Asmcom Carry Case.

Once this one has gone, it may well be the last brand-new BDR-UD04 we are able to offer.
