Compatible with ps5 pro? null

Highly unlikely. Sony wants PS5 users to buy a Sony PS5 drive for optical drives. There's most likely some proprietary handshaking that goes on between the console and the external drive to read PS5 discs.

Your PS5 Pro does not support third-party "plug and play" USB optical drives for playing games or movies. While you can attach an official Sony Disc Drive (CFI-ZDD1) to Digital Edition Slim and Pro models—which requires a one-time internet pairing—standard external USB drives are not supported, so it is incompatible with the LG - 8x External USB 2.0 Blu-ray Disc Double-Layer DVD±RW/CD-RW Disc Rewriter - Black Model # BP50NB40...^Ivan.
