** INFO : Drive = MATSHITA DVDRWBD UJ232AB. Manufacturer Name : īlank Disc Capacity : Unique Disc Identifier : ĭisc & Book Type :. Tools like WinHex should be capable of editing the the firmware's header to rename the UJ-232AB into UJ-232A, however without the right hex code, more damage than anything can be done. Fits for model: Panasonic/Matshita UJ870A UJ880A UJ890 UJ890A UJ8A0 UJ8B0 UJ8B1. Package included: 1 X Bare optical drive.

The question is how to to make the UJ-232AB 'look like' UJ-232A so the appropriate firmware update (R228028.exe) can be flashed. Device Type: DVD±RW (±R DL) / DVD-RAM drive Read Speed: 24x CD 8x DVD. I am not sure how Dell managed to release two updates for two different disk drives that can be both flash in either drives.
