BDR-212EBK or BDR-212M

[Matti]

So, I got lucky and found local seller for Pioneer drive who sold it to me at price that is embarassingly low for the market prices these days.

I'm happy with the drive, but the seller sold it to me as "BDR-212EBK", however it shows up "BDR-212M" on MakeMKV. Drive platform is RS8F00. Firmware name: PIONEER BDR-212T. It is all organic and original, no flashing. Just wondering, if these are different product names for the same drive or did the seller sell it to me with wrong name?

I'm happy with it anyway. Drive works and is certainly legit Pioneer drive. Just wondering about the model name?

Ok, I am an idiot.

It came in a case for 5.25" drive.I opened the case up and its marked as BDR-212EBK on the Pioneer sticker. Did not cross my mind to open it up before posting. Like I said, I'm an idiot.

Dont worry! The various types are so confusing and tailored (crippled) by Pioneer. Check your PM to make this drive UHD capable.
