Benefits of WH16NS60 Firmware on WH16NS40 drive?

[doingcraigslist]

Hi,
I want to thank you all for the excellent community. I was able to flash my NS40 drive to the MK firmware without issues!

I am curious if there are drawbacks to using the NS60 FW on the NS40 (like pre-mature aging of the components that may not be as robust as in the NS60) or if its just an unmitigated win?

Thanks

Still hoping to get some opinions on this, thanks.

Only benefit I’m aware of is the increase in max rip speed from 6.0 to 8.0.

Yes I forgot, the drive never gets tired with the NS60 firmware on it
