I have the set on DVD, and decided to pick this up at the same time as the TNG BR box set. What I have seen so far looks good, but they seem to be the theatrical releases, NOT the directors editions that were in the last DVD box set. Need to rewatch them side by side with the dvds to see what version they are. If they are director's editions, its a no brainer to get the set. If not, I'm temporarily stuck with the standard definition dvds. That would be sad. Recommendation to a friend is no, will change to yes if they are director's cut versions of the movies.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I have the TNG movies on DVD, except for Nemesis.
When this package showed up on the shelf, I had to upgrade to Blu Ray, and get the missing movie in the deal. Looks great on BRD

Putting together a media server from a laptop. Used a SSD in the main hard drive bay for fast booting and running the single app to stream media. Removed the optical drive, and replaced it with this 1TB Seagate laptop drive. This will hold many standard definition TV seasons ripped from DVD.

only 4 stars.... Not as good as Skyfall, but the real downer of the movie was a traditional bond villain reimaged and reintroduced as someone close to James.....
I don't like this trend in movies. This is what ruined the 2015 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for me.

After decades of saying I would never own a PC, surprise! I found a use for an older core 2 quad HP Elite 8000.... Hackintosh media server and BluRay ripping station! Addingthis card to get HDMI was a no brainer for a media machine.

Picked up the this final season along with season 3. Good series, enough plot twists and turns to avoid being too predictable.

Seagate - Backup Plus Desktop 4TB External USB 3.0/2.0 Hard Drive - Black
Schedule an automatic local backup or set up a 1-click plan using this Seagate Backup Plus STDT4000100 external hard drive's Protect function, which helps you safeguard your important files and documents. The 4TB capacity accommodates plenty of data.
 

Will this work well in a USB 2.0 port? I would think it would need power with a USB 2.0 port.

Yes, it works with USB2, although at a slower transfer rate. Since this drive is a full size 3.5 inch desktop style drive, with a 12 volt power requirement it needs an external power supply which is included with the drive. No bus powered option unless you get the seagate 4TB portable 2.5 inch form factor drive.
