I recently received a new LG Slim - WP50NB40 - Manufactured Jan 2026 I read the first post in this thread that indicated to go to > BP50NB40-NB50-1.03MK then to > BP60NB10 1.02MK or 1.00MK So I was able to flash first (using the SDFtoolFlasher GUI tool) to the 1.03, it then showed no longer encrypt...

LG 16NS40. Successfully flashed to HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_WH16NS60-1.02-NM00100-211810291936.bin using the GUI flash tool. Here are the current reads on the drive from MakeMKV. Screenshot 2026-03-01 133603.jpg However, when I put a 4K disc in it just chugs for 10 minutes and then goes back to "No disc...

Hello! Drives are getting harder to find, globally, and prices are increasing regularly. I'm in the US (Indiana) & have 4 x models on-hand, pre-flashed (I saw you're not worried about flashing yourself). If you have a preferred firmware to be flashed (some models have different firmware options)...

Do you know what the difference is?
Will there be any issues using it in the US?

For ripping/use with MakeMKV, drives are "global" - work anywhere.

Thanks,
Frank

Not really worried about price. Just can't find any for sale.

Right - because it hasn't been manufactured in almost 1.5 years, and *was* in high demand. Now they are all but gone.

Yes it is archgon case thanks for providing the reason it would not flash. Will look at other case etc. I purchased this drive from Amazon, removed the included drive & swapped in the drive from the archgon unit. Paid about $18 USD: External CD/DVD Drive for Laptop, DVD Burner CD Reader for Lap...
