Hi

First messagge here,

My drive:
Drive Information
OS device name: E:
Manufacturer: ASUS
Product: BW-16D1X-U
Revision: E113
Serial number: DCDL---------
Firmware date: 2020-07-21
Bus encryption flags: 1B

LibreDrive Information

Flashing it, will support bigger discs or it's just only for ripping 4K discs?

Based on previous messagges, it seems that is possible to get it working, please I need information about how to do it.

Thanks
