I recently bought one of these drives. It works ok for most discs, but for some more recent discs, it can't read them. I would also like it if I could get it to read a UHD disc. Here is the info from MakeMKV.

Billycar11,
I've sent you two emails in the past 10 hours about getting the software. I've already sent you $40 via paypaly and there is still no email response or the software.

Another "satisfied customer" here.
I purchased a Verbatim 43890 from Staples (Prices Corner shopping center, Wilmington, DE) yesterday. It has a Pioneer BDR-UD03 in it. I emailed the drive info to Billycar11 last night, got a quick response, and received the flasher before I woke up this morning. I just flashed my drive and I'm ripping now. Couldn't ask for more on a Friday night into Saturday morning.
Thank you!
