Hi Everyone,
I am new here and learning...or at least trying to. When I bought my drive I was told it was a different revision than it is. It came from a long way so I am no sure I care to return it unless absolutely necessary. I have been trying to figure out if anything is available to flash this drive, but Ionly found 1 post from 2018 refrencing it. Does anyone know if I can do UHD with this drive or am I out of luck?
Thank you!

Yes I was going through tthat but then saw my revision of CB05 and searched it and saw this
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=16832&p=63928&hilit=CB05#p63928
In there it says "Specifically at the post from "mike admin" who is the owner/developer of MakeMKV. That drive with its stock firmware is currently NOT supported for UHD ripping/decrypting by MakeMKV. Once it's supported, Mike will advise/announce. For immediate support with that drive at this time you need to use different software."
But then I never saw anything more about it anywhere. So I am concerned about flashing it after reading that.

it works man 2018 is before mk fw and stuff
that post from alex is 7 years old my guide was updated this year
and if you look at alex's recent reviews you can see how reliable he is
