Hello
I have a similar drive:

Drive Information
OS device name: I:
Manufacturer: PIONEER
Product: BD-RW BDR-209D
Revision: 1.51
Serial number: ...
Firmware date: 2018-05-08
Bus encryption flags: 13

LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: RS8600
Firmware name: PIONEER BDR-209
Firmware type: Original (unpatched)
Firmware version: 1.51/ID61
DVD all regions: Yes
BD raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes


There is one user (BassGuitarRox) who reported that flashing this drive (BDR-209D) led to unpredictable behaviour (Of course this may have been a hardware issue). I'm keen to try flashing my drive but slightly apprehensive about messing the drive up - it currently works perfectly for Bluray backups, just doesn't see 4K disks.

Would be grateful for advice.
