In the past I have successfully used my MacBook Pro to play blu ray discs from an external USB blu ray drive. I recently purchased a new movie on a UHD 4K blu ray disc, but Sierra cannot recognize the disc. I am trying to determine if this is a problem with my blu ray drive or with Mac OS X Sierra. Has anyone else been able to mount a UHD 4k blu ray disc on their Mac?

FYI, the drive I am using is a Samsung Portable BD Writer Model SE-506CB/RSWD external blu ray drive with TS01 firmware. The specs on the drive indicate that it should be able to handle three- and four-layer blu ray discs, but I have yet to witness evidence that this is the case. Again, I can play 1080p blu ray discs just fine with my current setup, but Mac OS X Sierra has yet to mount my UHD 4k blu ray disc.

Jun 12, 2012 I find this hard to believe. I have just brought a slot loading internal Panasonic Blu Ray drive for my mid 2010 Mac Mini. Will be doing the upgrade this weekend. Will keep you posted on how it goes! And surely VLC will play blu ray discs? It plays everything else!!! Oh, sure, it will fit in there. Heck, the system may even recognize for what.

Let me know if you have been able to read the new UHD 4K blu ray discs on your Mac. Please include the model of your external blu ray player and note which operating system you are using.
Mac os see what is using external drive. Make sure your Mac is connected to the external storage device (for example, using a USB cable or over a network). Click the Finder icon in the Dock to open a Finder window, then do one of.
