Hi, here is the following information of my UD03 in a verbatim 70102 drive:

Current profile: BD-ROM
Manufacturer: PIONEER
Product: BD-RW BDR-UD03
Revision: 1.11
Serial number: Tacos&Tequila
Firmware date: 2018-11-28
Bus encryption flags: 1B
Highest AACS version: 81

Is this drive eligible to read UHDs? I appreciate you helping us all out with this, I scoured the forums and didnt find anything concrete for these drives, but had no issues flashing my LG drive thanks to the general guide.

Thank you CooperVid, the flash went without any issue. This might warrant a different thread but would you know how to increase the read speed for standard blu rays? It maxes out at 2X and the pioneer software fails to recognize the drive to potentially unlock any riplocks. Noting the 4K rips at x4 as expected.

Again, your help is appreciated.
