I bought an LG WH16NS60 from Billy.

Communication was great. The drive works great. I emailed late on Dec 10 and the drive arrived on Dec 30 set up and ready to go. That's not a bad turnaround with shipping, setup, shipping, and Christmas in there too.

I recommend Billy as a great source for drives if you want to rip UltraHD/4K discs.

Thank you Billy.

I also bought an LG WH16NS60 from Billy in early 2019.

Communication has been amazing and very timely. The drive quit reading discs with a couple months left on the warranty. He helped me flash it for return and exchange. He also remotely reflashed the replacement drive for free since it was still under his warranty. While remotely connected he noticed my pc had an internal disc drive that's a UHD disc drive he also recommends. He flashed it for cheap. Now I have 2 UHD drives. :)

I highly recommend Billy. The customer service alone is worth the purchase.

I bought an LG BU40N from Billy.

Super fast turn around, and great status updates. I was thinking about checking out UHD Movies for a while, but trying to make sure that I got a drive with the right firmware and then taking a chance on bricking the drive while patching the firmware seemed like too much of a pain. Contact Billy and get a drive that just works.

After getting two dead UHD-friendly drives from Amazon I decided to go with someone who actually knew what they were doing. Billy was great and the turnaround was super quick (about a week). The drive has already ripped 2 Blu-rays and several DVDs.

Just posting to say that I also had a great experience. Super fast turnaround on getting my drive (less than a week), and it works great!

Good service and support. Drive arrived quickly.
Highly recommend.

Note: I used the recommended vantek enclosure and the controller was broken. The symptom was everything seems fine but my PCs saw the drive as an unrecognized USB3 device. Given the Amazon reviews looks like I won the lottery getting a broken one. New one arrived worked right off the bat, no drivers needed etc.

Cheers,
Simon

Not to derail this thread but the Vantec enclosures used to have serious issues with the power supply blowing up not long into its lifespan.

And I’d like to vouch for Billy being extremely skilled with both hardware and software QA.

Anytime I’m stuck or just want to bounce an idea off him I leave the conversation knowing I’ve received solid advice!

I bought the BU40N USB and out of the box, the drive works flawlessly. Billy was a great communicator and is highly recommended.

Just got my new 4K-compatible drive and enclosure from Billy Carlson.
The drive works as good as it looks and it arrived just in time for me to try
it out on a set of Ghostbusters 4K blu-rays. Each disc scanned perfectly and
VERY quietly.

Mahalo Nui Loa Billy!

Billy is the perfect person from whom to purchase UHD drives. I bought a 4K drive from Best Buy, thinking it would read and rip Ultra HD Blu-ray without any problems, but MakeMKV displayed an error message that the drive would not allow MakeMKV to create an MKV file of the movie stream due to the drive recognizing and complying with the copy protection code on the disc or something. When I bought a drive from Billy, it was everything I wanted. The package was delivered in great condition. It reads and rips 4K discs without error, and I could not be happier with the transaction. I highly recommend purchasing drives from him.
