How to Backup Blu-ray to External HDD for watching in Recreational Vehicle?

Basically, my family and I go traveling once a month in a recreational vehicle, while my children have nothing better to do than watch movies on PC/Car TV when I am driving. I've got hundreds of Blu-rays but I got tired of lugging them around, so I bought a 2TB External HDD and just want to watch movies on PC/Car TV via that. However, I am not a computer-man and I really do not know how to backup Blu-ray to External HDD for watching in recreational vehicle.

In order to backup Blu-ray to External HDD, you will need a Blu-ray ripper to rip the Blu-ray copy protection in advance and convert Blu-ray movies to External HDD compatible format, like MP4.
