External USB Blue Ray drive?

Any highly regarded USB Blue Ray drives out there?

 

Seeing as Optical disk formats have pretty much stopped, now seems a good time to pick one up as I have a couple of Blue rays I use through my XB1 but would like to be able to rip to my PC (legal in the UK).

 

Having DVD/CD reading at least is a must as well.

Since when has Amazon best sellers been a good metric of performance.

 

I ask on this forum to look for personal recommendations.

That depends on how much you want to spend ultimately. 

 

Best one i've used out of about 10 different ones : http://www.staples.ca/en/ASUS-6x-External-Slim-Blu-ray-Combo-Drive/product_511973_2-CA_1_20001

I accept that a blue ray drive now-a-days is £60-90 and am prepared to pay that.
