Wouldn't it be better to try, than asking?
I did and it failed. I got Billycar’s flash for the drive, i did it but then it didn’t rip the uhd movie.
It's a good idea to always include relevant info (flashed it. tried UHD. failed.) in the original post...

"It failed" - error message or log? What happened? Post that relevant info also.

Can't seem to get this one to work. Anyone out there have luck with this drive and unlocking it for UHD operating. The help would be much appreciated.
