## Description

LG WP50NB40 - disk drive - bdxl - 6x2x6x - USB 2.0 - external

Review: Great blu-ray drive - Package arrived as described in excellent condition. Works great as far as I can tell and I’m satisfied with my purchase.
Review: Negative reviews worrying you? Think again. - ***Final Update*** Make MKV and Handbrake = the way to go when you want the best quality ripping. **Further Update** DOES NOT support 4k. **A little bit of an update** Great little device, you can't go wrong, unless your ONLY purpose is to RIP Blu-Rays and want to dish out another couple hundred for an ASUS 6x ripper AND have a CPU that can support that speed. Second counter to negative reviews: The longevity. Don't try to RIP multiple files at once, or yes, your device will last about 2 days. RIP only 1 file at a time. Third counter to negative reviews: Software. To RIP Blu-Rays you have 3 real choices of software: - 1st: Handbrake or VLC These are free but do not support encrypted Blu-Ray movies. - EasyFab Inexpensive for lifetime use, easy to use, simple interface, useful tools. Doesn't do HVEC (x265) encoding which is far superior to x264, doesn't crop videos, doesn't support latest NVIDIA's gimmicky hardware, and doesn't do 4k rips. - DVDFab Feels like pirated software with Wukong ( a Chinese deity that is like a cross between Satan and Loki ) as a logo and a clunky/bloated interface. However, this will encode in x265, does support NVIDIA's gimmicky hardware, does rip 4k, does auto iTunes tagging that is mostly correct, does auto crop that is usually okay, and does bypass any and all encryptions. The problem is, it's Chinese, their terms of service blatantly tells you they will sell your information to shady people, and it's hella expensive at 140 bucks. Best Tool for iTunes Tagging and DVD Rips: Hands down: Aimersoft Ultimate No other tool comes close. This is beyond comparison the best bang for the buck video software that is on the market. Excellent tools, useful options, clean interface, good support, and inexpensive for what you get. Just make sure you set in the preferences to convert only 1 file at a time, if you are RIPPING a DVD. Best video players for playing Blu-Rays - VLC is the open-source one that everyone loves - Gom is the one I like. Gom has annoying ads, but more than makes up for it in useful tools, customization and out-of-the box support for video and audio formats. A firewall solved my ad problem with Gom.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Writes 50GB BD Disks - not fast but without errors
*by T***T on July 22, 2025*

This unit replace an identical one that worked for many years, but started having errors. The prior version of this BD disk writer had been used for many years to make backup disks of important documents that we store in a safe deposit box at our bank. This replacement model writes data disks without errors. It is not high speed, but that is why it can write over 100,000 data files in one copy job without errors. It is important to use two USB ports to provide sufficient power without errors, I find that a USB 3 link for the data port and a USB wall charger for extra power works best. Do NOT install or use the software that is included with the device. Use the built-in driver and disk writing app on your PC/laptop for writing and reading disks.
