Crossflashing PIONEER BDR-212T for UHD capability

[pawliner]

Hello,

first of all I hope it's okay to write in English here, I thought it would be better than a machine-translation to Polish.

I was luckily able to get my hands on two older Asus BW-16D1H-U PRO modelswith the inbuilt OEM Drive PIONEER BDR-212T.

If I understand correctly, these are not UHD capable as is, however is it possible to crossflash them to an UHD-friendly firmware?

Here is the drive information from MakeMKV:

Drive Information
OS Device Name: \Device\CdRom0
Manufacturer: ASUS
Product: BW-16D1H-U
Revision: E116
Serial number: removed
Firmware date: 2020-07-21
Bus encryption flags: 1B

LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: RS8F00
Firmware type: PIONEER BDR-212T
Firmware version: Original (unpatched)
DVD all regions: Yes
BW raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes

I would really appreciate any assistance in flashing the drive with the ideal firmware, if possible.

Thank you!!
