» Backup Blu-ray to SSD with NVIDIA GPU AccelerationMultimedia Hive

Comparing with smaller USB Sticks, SSDs have more capacity than them. The significant speed increases of SSDs make them an overall better, cost-effective choice for the data organization. So if you want to take your Blu-ray collection with you and plan to backup Blu-ray to USB Stick, now you can change your mind and start to copy Blu-ray to SSD.

Why Do We Put Blu-ray to SSD?

Watching Blu-ray movies at home with home theatre system like Blu-ray player or Xbox One S is great fun with family members and friends. However, it will be weird for us to carry a hardware Blu-ray player or a device with Blu-ray drive around if we plan for a long train journey and would like to watch Blu-ray movies on the train. Meanwhile, there are other occasions in which your source Blu-ray discs might get lost or broken. In such conditions, copying Blu-ray to SSD would be of great help. Below content shows you where you may need a SSD rather than a Blu-ray disc.

Best Blu-ray to SSD Ripper

It is not difficult to rip, copy or backup Blu-ray to SSD. First of all, the data on a commercial Blu ray movie is encrypted, you are not allowed to copy Blu-ray files to a SSD directly. Hence, we need Pavtube ByteCopy to rip and digitize Blu-ray to a common video for adding to SSD. Besides, if you convert Blu-ray to H.264 and H.265 video to SSD, you can rip Blu-ray to SSD with NVIDIA GPU acceleration. Because Pavtube ByteCopy has recently upgraded to version 4.9.1.0 with supporting the newest NVIDIA CUDA and NVIDIA NVENC technology in video encoding by H.264 and H.265 codec to improve performance and ensure users much faster conversion speed than ever before when coping/ripping/converting DVD/Blu-ray, since more CPU resources are spared because of NVIDIA CUDA’s harnessing the power of GPU. So if you choose to convert DVD and Blu-ray to H.265 or H.264 video, you can get up to 30x times ripping speed. If you want to save much time when ripping DVD to SSD, you can rip DVD to SSD in H.265 format with NVIDIA CUDA acceleration following the below steps.
