USED Ultra-Slim UHD LG/Pioneer Drives (Flashed and Tested) US ONLY

Post by Classytimes » Tue Oct 27, 2026 3:42 am

Update 11/13/26 - The next incoming batch of drives I have more information on. Most are sourced from business laptops, meaning they have experienced high power-on hours. 99.9% of these power-on hours were spent idling. This means that the moving parts inside as well as the lasers themselves have very little usage. Some of the lasers have been used for less than an hour, making the mechanism practically new. While the exact number of laser hours may not be known per drive, I will have an estimate per drive. Drives with higher laser hours will be priced lower than drives with low/no hours. Next batch should be in very soon!

I have some used drives in excellent condition for sale! Each drive has been read tested for DVD's, Blu-ray's, and UHD Blu-ray's. No write testing has been performed as I do not have the means to do so.
Each drive will be in a generic USB enclosure with a Y-cable USB + Type-C attached, unless noted otherwise. The boxes of the drives may state they are USB 3.0, but they are limited to USB 2.0 speeds. The drives will still transfer data at full speed through USB 2.0. In my testing of the drives, I had never needed to supplement them with extra power, but if you are still concerned, then the USB-C attachment can be used to stabilize power delivery. If you want a picture of a drive or any additional info, send me an email! If you have a preference on what drive you wish to purchase, please let me know!
No warranty or returns.

I am currently out of LG BU50N/BU40N units, but if you want one, you can still shoot me an email. I will do what I can to source one. I will not go out of my way to get more of the LG units unless I receive an email requesting them.

I might be able to stock additional drives in the future, but it is a low possibility I will be able to get more LG drives. My chances of procuring additional Pioneer drives are currently good, but I will first wait for what I currently have to sell. If you're interested in a BU50N, I am currently sold out, but if you email me anyway, I will do what I can to get one for you. It may cost more though for me to snag one, but please reach out!
