So, I purchased a drive today after reading that it was UHD friendly. It turns out it needs some work to get it to read UHD discs. I'm attempting to do some research and wanted to see if anyone already has the expertise on how to accomplish this. I found this post in the DVDFab forums that makes me hopeful that I can accomplish this.


Model: Archgon MD-8107-U3

Previous user said they used a patched LG Flasher utility to cross-flash the drive from firmware version U100 to version 1.03
Then they used a UHD Drive Tool to downgrade the firmware from version 1.03 to version 1.00 to make it support UHD.

Anyone have a simplified guide on how to do this? Much thanks in advance!
