To piggyback, is there a good USB Blu ray drive?

(And is there a known good CLI tool for backing up copies of them?)

I have some Blu Rays I worry will be lost to disc rot 20 years from now...

I've used the Pioneer BDR-XS07UHD[0] and that's worked well with MakeMKV[1]! I've only tried it on normal DVDs, but Blu-Rays should work well too.
