Is Verbatim 43889 drive any good? Will I have able to rip UHD and use it as a LibreDrive?

If it has a Pioneer ud03 drive, contact me and I get you the firmware flasher to make it uhd for free.

The 43889 has the Pioneer BDR-UD03 inside (older models) or the LG BU40N (newer models).

Both need to flash for ripping 4K disks with MakeMKV.

For pioneer you need the flasher from Billy oder Marty for example. The LG you can flash yourself with the flashing guide which you can find here.
