DVD Decrypting and Additional Information

A free and popular utility used by many to decrypt original DVDs and hence backup the contents onto a computer's hard drive, DVD Decrypter has unfortunately succumbed to the pressure of a certain company whose technology it was circumventing and has since ceased development. There will not be a new version but the most recent v3.5.4.0 remains in the wilds of the Internet if you should need such a program. While there are other commercial solutions, it is still one of the best and of course, free.

Despite having 16x read speed, the LG GSA-H62N took longer than expected in DVD Decrypter. Almost 30mins had passed before we got our image file of the Matrix DVD, compared to 17mins for our previous SATA drive, the ASUS DRW-1814BLT. We tried this twice and both times we had similarly disappointing results.

Manufactured in March this year.

Mount Rainer is not supported on this drive, but the included Nero InCD software should provide similar packet writing capabilities.
