Not the assembly - and it would depend on what the actual drive inside the assembly is as to whether it would be useful in your computer.

4K UHDs are not region coded. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_HD_Blu-ray
On May 12, 2015, the Blu-ray Disc Association revealed completed specifications and the official Ultra HD Blu-ray logo. Unlike conventional DVDs and Blu-rays, the new 4K format does not have region coding.
If you get an optical drive for your computer that is LibreDrive capable, it will ignore region coding on DVDs and regular blu-rays.
