    Can anyone with the read only BR drive tell me what specific model drive they have? My wife is incapable of leaving the house without snagging a cheap dvd for the kids from the bargain bin. It is against my religion to force my children to watch 15 minutes of advertising and FBI warnings on a DVD we've paid for so I am constantly ripping DVDs to disk. Looking for the specific drive model to check for RPC and riplock firmware.

    1 R0N0R MOD,DVDRW/BD-ROM,HLDS,BARE,ANW

    That's the specific drive.
