    SONY DVD RW DW-Q58A - UYS2, UYS3 / Dell OEM UDS2

    Use LtnRPC to reset or disable the Region Counter. Click Disable and your drive will be region free!

    Since your old firmware is UYS2 you should update it to UYS3 the higher the letter or number the latest update it is.

    The drive you have is actually a lite-on drive but rebaged with the Sony Name. OEM Liteon SOSW-8?3S I would assume is the firmware you could cross flash to make the drive region free.

    I am not the most knowledgeable when it comes to cross flashing etc. I think the reason it list both firmware is because you can use either or on the drive.
