Looking for the current best drive for UHD and LibreDrive, and in general fullest functionality for MakeMKV.

Was originally considering https://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-BDR-212V ... B08R89FN61 but concerned that it may have the encrypted firmware.

Thanks in advance!

Try to get the Vinpower 212V. Maybe from Amazon.de. I didn‘t find it in Poland.

I'd also like to have a recommendation. Internal or external does not matter.
It should work with Blu-Ray, UHD, DVD but also do good audio rips with EAC or dbPowerAMP etc.
Country: Germany
Also any pointer to what I need to do wrt firmware for the recommended drive would be appreciated!
thanks!
