To old if your looking to do UHD 208 and newer for 5.25 drives and xd05 and newer for slims if you want UHDbigrippa4k wrote: Mon Aug 18, 2025 7:15 pm Regarding the BDR-207's (specifically 207-DBK) what is the 'drive platform'? I found this model on marketplace for $20 and I'm considering taking the gamble but it sounds like most likely it will not be supported?
Currently, no. The firmware is too new. Must be pre 12/2022. You will have to wait for future support.nd4spd81 wrote: Wed Aug 20, 2025 3:01 am Can this one do UHD?
