Hey kufo, you mean the OWC ?

@kufo Found this enclosure: https://www.lindy-international.com/USB-3-0-Enclosure-5-25-for-BD-DVD-CD-Drives.htm?websale8=ld0101.ld020102&pi=43138 I've asked them if a 181mm deep optical drive would fit....I will let you know their answer.

Yes unfortunately...was checking for an enclosure and saw that detail...

Have you checked if the drive will fit in that enclosure? Here what it state OWC: Drives Supported 5.25-inch SATA optical drives — CD, DVD, Blu-ray — up to 6.77 inches (17.2 cm) deep Pioneer Drive dimensions: Dimensions (mm) 148 mm x 181 mm x 42.3mm (W x D x H) (Including Front Bezel)

I see....man what a bad habits to change name for the same device...no sense in this..just add more confusion for nothing.. Thanks !!

Don't see the UBK in Europe: https://pioneer-blurayodd.eu/ Same for EBK on US site: https://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Computer/Computer+Drives

Hi kufo, Sure.. no problem...still waiting for parts for my new system...I think I will start build it not before end of January.. Thanks !

Thank you very much !

Regarding Pioneer drives for writing >25GB discs...which one (external) you'll suggest ? How about the BDR-XS07UHD ? Thanks !

Done. Should be allright.

Ok i will go with ASUS then. Yes BD 25 is enough. I plan to build a new pc and probably wil go with external optical drives... I can look for a suitable Pioneer drive for BD > 25..

I want writing... Where I find 1.02 ?

Sorry coopervid, If I asked these questions was because even after reading your guide, I was not sure what I had to do...I am not an expert in this regard (optical drives and their relatives "problems") Luckily, forum exist to ask questions before doing stupid trhings (hopefully), and not after...
