Your drive won't be able to rip a 4K UHD until it is flashed with the right firmware. You can either do it yourself by reading the
Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide or contact Billycar11 via email and for a modest fee he'll send you an auto flasher that'll properly flash your drive for you (assuming you're on Windows).
