As the subject states, a blu ray drive connected via sata is not detected by LE anywhere (Tried 2 different drives, one Pioneer and another one). The drive is detected correctly by bios. Don't know where to start looking.

I'd guess the SATA controller hardware isn't supported, which is either simple or horribly complicated to resolve (in software) depending on what chipsets are involved. Run "dmesg | paste" and "lscpi | paste" from the console and share the URL(s) please.

NB: Kodi does not show the 'disc' menu unless there is a readable disc inserted, and if you are inserting encrypted BR media you will need to add a KEYDB.cfg file to /storage/.cache/aacs/ else the media remains encrypted and unreadable. It is not possible to legally play your legally owned BR media under Linux as there are no legally licensed player apps (they only exist on Windows/macOS). We cannot provide the KEYDB file and we will stop short of providing URLs to them to avoid violating laws, so you will need to Google and source the file and violate them yourself
