Because Asus is re-badging LG drives, they also got the update.So new drives of those older models are compatible with DeUHD (see the list below). In 2015, some LG drives got a new hardware design, a new front (bezel) and started to 'see' the content of UHD discs: those were WH16NS40 and BH16NS40, with SVC NS50 on the label.They did not implement AACS2 protection, but they're good enough to work with DeUHD tool, called them UHD friendly. As new formats emerge, update your media player software.4K UHD Blu-ray disc is a new type of Blu-ray disc that is not compatible with old drives (made before second half of 2015), just like BD XL didn't work with non XL drives. Note: Depending on your operating system's built-in functionality, additional software may be required to encode/decode Blu-ray formats.

Connect the drive to your computer, install the included software, and start using it. Our Data Storage devices are Plug-and-Play compliant, and do not require drivers. Other versions such as OEM, or for users who have misplaced their original software, may require third-party software for Blu-ray features. Retail versions of these drives include the required software in the box ( DO NOT LOSE). Note: For users with new machines (first time using the LG Optical Disc Drive on this computer), additional software is required for Blu-ray playback/burning. Please uninstall/reinstall the playback/burning software to correct this issue. If experiencing issues related to DVD/Blu-ray playback or burning, your playback software may have been removed or currupted during the update from Windows < 10 to Windows 10. LG Optical Disc Drives have been tested with Windows 10 and continue to be recognized as Plug-and-Play devices (no drivers required).
