Grabbed one last week sold by Amazon.com. I successfully flashed it to the 1.02MK firmware using this USB adadpter:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product...UTF8&psc=1

and was able to rip a UHD title with MakeMKV.

Keep in mind that if you have a 12th gen Intel, you won't be able to use this to play standard or 4K Blu-ray movies on your PC because Intel removed some required HDCP security thing from their newest chips (citing that the HDCP handshake protocol is a security vulnerability).

What do you mean by "function"?

The main reason for users of this drive is to update to 4K-rip friendly firmware. Then rip their 4K UHD discs to play using Plex Server or Kodi.

What do these usually go for? Doesn't show a discount listed on the Amazon page. Where's the "deal" here?

The post just says "without software" so I'm a bit confused at what software is needed

I have one of these and it was great while it lasted. Unfortunately, it died after only a year or two. It happened right in the middle of reading a Blu-Ray. It will still read DVDs but not Blu-Rays. I replaced it with the 16x version. Hopefully that one holds up better.
