Hi,
I have a LG BH16NS55 (Firmware 1.02) which is unreliable.
What is the best drive available in Germany, that can rip UHDs?
Verbatim 43888 external or Vinpower 212V internal. Vinpower needs to be flashed. The Verbatim works right away.
Thank you for the quick response.
I purchased the Vinpower 212V and received it today.
Can you please let me know where I can find a reliable instruction for flashing the drive?

Any hint for Germany as I'm on the hunt for a new drive? Czech Republic or Luxembourg or Switzerland would also somehow be ok, I'm often enough over there and things aren't sooooo urgent...
