I am new to the whole backing up my media thing, and I went down the Blu-ray rabbit hole and fell in love with 4k discs, sometimes I wonder if I am going to ruin my collection, so I want to back them up. I thought I bought the correct drive, but it doesn't play 4k discs. Any help is welcome.
thank you

Yep, this is a LG drive. It is not 4K UHD capable as is but you can flash it to WH16NS60 1.02-MK and you are good to go.iphoenix2099 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 03, 2026 11:38 pmI am new to the whole backing up my media thing, and I went down the Blu-ray rabbit hole and fell in love with 4k discs, sometimes I wonder if I am going to ruin my collection, so I want to back them up.
