Description
Listed is a brand new LG WH14NS40 drive flashed to UHD Official WH16NS60 Firmware Version 1.02, making this a UHD Friendly drive. Flashing the drive to this particular firmware version has a couple of benefits...First off
it ups the write speed from 14x to 16x.
Second
, and most importantly, the flashed firmware is a UHD Official firmware, which allows the drive to decrypt and read 4K Blu-Ray discs, including 3D Blu-Ray and BDXL/BDXL-R discs.
Having a UHD Friendly drive doesn't mean you can automatically play 4k discs, it just means your disc drive won't be the limiting factor in your system anymore. In addition to this drive, you will need software like MakeMKV (My preferred and recommended software), KMPlayer, Etc. Not compatible with DVDFab due to being 1.02 firmware, see my listing for this drive with 1.00 for DVDFab compatibility.
Tested and Guaranteed to work!
The Second photo is the firmware version of this drive, proving it is the WH16NS60 v1.02 like promised. The third picture proves the drive works and can read UHD discs, as standard Blu-Ray discs top out at 50GB. And the fourth picture shows it working in makeMKV and its LibreDrive status. These drives are opened up once, installed into my computer in order to flash them, used to rip one disc to test and make sure they function as needed, and then placed back into the packaging.
Drive comes in original packaging, and I throw in a sata data cable and mounting screws. Mounting screws are installed on both sides of the drive. The cable and mounting screws can be removed if requested.
