NEW External LG WH16NS40 Blu-ray drive firmware 1.02 4K, Ultra HD, UHD Friendly!

Description: Brand new LG WH16NS40 that came from the factory with firmware 1.03, 1.04 or 1.05, depending on date of manufacture, and service code NS50. With any of these firmware installed, these drives are not able to read a 4K disc, developed in an effort to further the anti-piracy movement. I have changed the firmware to the last version that makes the NS50 drives capable of reading 4K discs - version 1.02.This drive comes pre-installed in a USB 3.0 external enclosure along with a USB 3.0 cable and AC adapter. Works with Windows 7, 8, or 10 or Mac OS x 10.6 or later. This is true plug and play! This drive will function as a regular WH16NS40 would. What makes my drive special is additionally it will READ a 4K disc, guaranteed. 4K was developed around anti-piracy, so PLAYING a 4K disc on your PC has a huge list of requirements. This is only one piece of the 4K chain. I CANNOT guarantee you will be able to plug this in and play a 4K disc on your PC. It will, however, READ a 4K disc. Therefore, with additional software (NOT included in this auction), this drive can provide you options to decrypt, rip, burn, copy, etc, giving the potential to change a 4K disc to a playable file format. Additionally, "official UHD" drives now come with a firmware installed that make them incompatible with copying software. You CANNOT just go out and buy a 4K drive and start ripping files! The ONLY solution is to have a drive like this that is "UHD friendly". Works with DeUHD, DVDFab UHD, AnyDVD HD & MakeMKV (LibreDrive enabled). Reads 3D Blu-Ray. Works with BDXL. Compatible with Windows and Mac. Pic #2 proves the drive reads a 4K disc. It shows the LG drive set as Drive K. Note the movie title and the size of the disc at 53.9GB, regular blu rays max out at 50GB. (PLEASE NOTE, the 4K movie pictured here is NOT included in this listing!) Pic #3 shows the hardware IDs in My Computer showing the current firmware installed, firmware 1.02. All drives are brand new and tested for 4K compatibility after the firmware has been changed. This drive has been removed from original packaging once, hooked to my PC to change the firmware, tested by inserting a 4K disc, then mounted in the external enclosure, double boxed and ready to ship. Other than that, it is absolutely brand new. The optical drive, enclosure, USB 3.0 cable and power cable are the only items included in this listing. No additional cables, software, or mounting hardware is included. I guarantee the drive not to be DOA, that it will function as a regular WH16NS40 would, and additionally read 4K discs. All drives are carefully packed to ensure safe arrival. In the unlikely event you should receive a damaged or defective drive (again, ALL drives are tested after changing firmware), a replacement drive will be sent in it's place. Please note although I have multiple drives in this listing they are sold individually, as each, and the price listed is for ONE (1) drive. Beware of newbies on here listing UHD friendly drives. If imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I am EXTREMELY flattered. Others love to copy my ideas and my listing, sometimes word for word. Rest assured, I am the original, trusted UHD friendly drive seller on eBay and have the history and feedback to prove it - no one else can back that statement up like I can. I am the ONLY Top Rated UHD seller and the ONLY UHD seller with 1,300+ feedback. I have been modifying and selling UHD drives since April, 2018 and have sold over 1,000 drives.
