From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't have any experience with those drives, but i do have an LG BE16NU50 drive, which i already had when i was still on windows, and it worked on linux no problem. I also use it to play/rip CDs. I'm not sure if it's any different for 4k bluray drives, since mine is older and 1080p only, but from my experience it just works.
