BDR-S13J-X New from Japan

[lobochrome]

Hey,

I bought a slim drive on this forum in Germany a couple of years ago, and it always worked decently. Recently, though, I've been struggling with a few of my UHD discs.

I was wondering if I buy the Pioneer listed here, https://www.biccamera.com/bc/item/9786974/, if it would be able to flash it with for instance billy's tool? Or is there a firmware cut-off date now that would limit this?

Any advice?

FW cut off after 12/22
so the drive would need fw from before then to work

I see - thank you Billycar.

Any advice for getting a high quality drive in Japan? Is there anybody on the forums who would ship to japan?
