The bug may only appear for certain combinations of drive and USB chipset. Check for firmware updates for the drive.
Yep. I'm thinking it has something to do with the chipset. I believe I did read about some usb problem some chips have (but it was a while back and I don't remember where I saw it). This is a GIGABYTE Z390 AORUS Ultra in the machine I'm trying to use. The drive is brand new and came with the latest firmware (though lots of people go to a lot of trouble to install old firmware in this drive to get UHD Blu-ray ripping to work :-).
Anyway, all I need to do is remember to use the little pioneer drive when I want to rip a dvd and I'm OK. I guess there are some things man is not meant to understand.
