The biggest difference between my drive and the common ones is that its firmware is "E116", compared to the often-seen ones with "E114" or "E115" firmware. But since the LibreDrive is enabled, I put an UHD disc inside. Surprisingly, after a while of reading, MakeMKV just simply told me that there is "No Disc" inside. That's awful. What should I do, or which firmware should I patch since its chip is not MT1959?

Sorry. Look elsewhere. Half a year after sending the firmware right away you lost youir window of opportunity. I just dislike slow people who ask for help and then disappear.
