You can't backup the complete existing firmware, only the important bits. Use SDFtool Flasher to READ the firmware (important bits) to a 70kb tar file. Then WRITE firmware BP60NB10-NB12 1.02-MK to the drive and you will then be able to rip UHD discs.

Ok, sounds good. Where can I locate the MK file to download?

This one?

mk-firmware-pack-20200720.zip\mk-firmware-pack-20200720\MK\HL-DT-ST\BP60NB10 - ZIP archive

No. Go to the SDFtool flasher thread and download my "All you need firmware pack (martyMcNuts)". It has the BP60NB10-NB12 1.02-MK file in it.
