4K/UHD Verbatim slim-line USB with Pioneer UD03 and UD04 drives for sale, new & tested!

[heisenberg]

I have several new and unused Verbatim slim drives 43888, 43889, and 43890, all equipped with built-in Pioneer drives:

- Verbatim 43888 with Pioneer UD04 (300€)
- Verbatim 43889 with Pioneer UD03 (300€)
- Verbatim 43890 with Pioneer UD03 (310€)

Each drive has been opened and checked. The 43889 and 43890 drives have been cross-flashed with the UD04 firmware, enabling support for 4K UHD discs. The 43888 already supports 4K UHD discs out-of-the box.

Please note that the 43888 and 43889 share exactly the same case and connectors, specifically a single USB-C USB 3.2 Gen 1 connector. To use these drives, ensure that your device provides sufficient current through the USB port. My tests indicate that these drives require approximately 1,25 A of current.

The 43890 shares the same case as the other two but includes an additional power connector and power supply. It also comes with a Y-USB3.0-Micro-B to 2x USB3.0 cable. If your device's USB can deliver adequate current (approximately 1,25 A), you can connect just one of the USB connectors without needing the power supply. If you are uncertain, it is advisable to use the included power supply.

I ship within one business day through DHL within the European Union (other countries available on request depending on the tariffs situation) and accept payment via PayPal. Returns are accepted within 14 days if you are not satisfied with the drive.

Shipping costs:

- within Germany 6,19 €
- within EU 14,49 €

Feel free to contact me via PM or email (verbatim-pioneer-drives@mailbox.org). Since the forum's been a bit unreliable lately, it's best to reach out via email.

Please let me make some comments here. I've been in contact with heisenberg and his offers here are solid and no scam in any way. If you are interested in a Verbatim drive with a Pioneer inside this is a chance you might not have again anytime in the future. Unfortunately the forum has again been very slow recently which keeps a lot of people away (including myself).

Can you ship to USA? Would the be region free for DVD?

Can you ship to USA?

Yes, but shipping from Germany to the US is currently a bit tricky due to the tariff situation.

I can send the package via DHL for €26.49 (=$30.78) and declare it as a personal gift. Personal gifts valued below $100 are still exempt from duty and tax. There is a chance that they might estimate the package value to be over $100. If that happens, the recipient will need to pay the duty. You can find more details here: https://www.cbp.gov/travel/us-citizens/ ... u-go/gifts

So, long story short: if you’re cool with the chance of paying the duty, I’m happy to send the drive as a personal gift. I’ll throw in some German candy too, so it feels more like a personal gift.

Would the be region free for DVD?

Yes, the drives support all DVD regions according to MakeMKV.

I contacted heisenberg via email and asked about buying Verbatim 43890 with Pioneer UD03 last Saturday. Today, the drive arrived at my home, and it's working perfectly.

Unfortunately shipping to the US is really tricky but better to order something from China when you really don't know what you get. Here is a trusted seller who is just struggling with the tariff rules.

Thanks... I've placed an order in the US.
