Pioneer TechPulse 120 (BDR-TD05), what can I do with it?

Hi

So, title says it all; I bought this unit from Amazon, and I already ripped a normal BD, but 4K HDR ones wont even get recognized.

Información de unidad de disco
Nombre del SO del dispositivo: D:
Perfil actual: BD-ROM
Fabricante: PIONEER
Producto: BD-RW BDR-TD05
Revisión: 2.02
Número de serie: (I dont think it´s needed)
Fecha del firmware: 2015-09-04
Marcas de cifrado bus: 1B
Highest AACS version: 36

LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible, not yet enabled
Drive platform: Pioneer RS8211
Firmware version: ID72

Can this unit really play/rip BD UHD? What about that post claiming all Pioneers will be LibreDrive supported? When that happens, will I need special HW to flash it, and will flashing make it able to work with BD UHD?

Do you think I should better return this drive to Amazon?

Thanks!

I don't think this will ever be able to read UHD discs even if you can enable libredrive.

Thanks for your reply! I bough a Verbatim 43888, which reading here I found it was a safe bet; Pioneer? Out of the box. LG? easy flashing

I'll use a known pretty good usb-c cable instead of the one that comes with it, both for flashing and ripping my library

This tuesday it should arrive ^^
