My video racks take up 11.5 cubic feet each. My entire movie collection now fits in a box measuring 6.53" H x 7.83" W x 8.77" D.įigure 3. The DS918+ was very easy to setup and use.įigure 2. After formatting the hard drives and installation of the DiskStation's operating system, each hard drive had 6.98 TB of storage available (27.92 TB total). The DiskStation's memory was expanded from 4 GB to the maximum 8 GB. Proof of concept - movies from a hard drive.Ī Synology DiskStation DS918+ network attached storage (NAS) was selected for the video server, along with four 8 TB Western Digital Red NAS drives. After that brief exposure to "moves at my fingertips", there was no going back.įigure 1. I finally got around to doing a "proof of concept" study playing DVD and Blu-ray movies from a hard drive in an external enclosure. which will corrupt it because it's not encrypted.I had put off digitizing my movie collection for quite a while because I didn't want to spend the time and money. Anydvd has no way of knowing that it's been disabled so it'll decrypt all the data coming across. the reason I said that enabling libredrive mode and then trying to use anydvd is unlikely to work is that the drive still reports supporting bus encryption. It's unclear as to what the difference is with aacs 2.1. Since anydvd already handles bus encryption on bluray, the same process is used when reading a uhd. The magic of friendly drives is that they can read uhd discs as though they are bluray discs. That magic is what allows us to create a proper protected iso that can be decrypted with the title keys.Īnydvd does something similar with uhd friendly drives. The drive still thinks it supports it but when the data is read from the disc it forgets to bus encrypt it. When you enable libredrive mode, the firmware extension disables bus encryption. It works with all friendly and some real uhd drives with the proper firmware flashed. This is a bit of firmware extension code that gets uploaded to the drive's memory. Let me expand a little upon that just to make it clear.
