In this article, we’ll show you how to effortlessly copy your DVD library to portable 2TB hard drive for using and playback on a tablet or smartphone anywhere you like.

DVD discs are always trapped on physical platters. If you want to watch something, you have to find the disc, slide it into a DVD player—or a computer with a DVD drive, then converting your DVD movie library to digital files for storage is a nice idea. Now you are in the right place, I will share my experience to backup my DVD to portable 2TB hard drive for using on a tablet or smartphone here.

Recently, I have some Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Episodes in DVD discs and want to rip them for putting onto my portable 2TB hard drive since it has a lot of storage space and provides portability, which means I can use the converted files for playback freely on my tablet or smartphone.

The software I will use is Pavtube BDMagic for Mac, one of the best Blu-ray Rippers, which can rip and convert Blu-ray and DVD to almost all regular video formats like MP4, MOV, MKV, FLV, WMV, AVI, etc. for storage on my portable 2TB hard drive.
