My Sony x800 doesn’t read the 3D MKV. I have to make them m2ts which sucks because it’s hard to seek and lose chapters which are in the MKV. what are you using that reads the 3D MKV?

Yes. That's why I posted the deal given the recent 4K movie deals. People maybe looking for a drive to rip them for Plex. The mods didn't post the deal as a 4K UHD capable drive.

USB 2.0 is probably too slow to rip UHD. LG WH14NS40 is a popular internal drive to rip 4k.
