Thanks to all. I just purchased 3 LG BU40N and slimline enclosures. Which version of FW is recommended?

Thanks. I flashed drives all the way back to the DOS tools and have used the SDF Flasher several times. I got version 1.3.4 of the flasher tool but when I got to
viewtopic.php?f=19&t=19113
and download the MK firmwares, there is no 1.03 version but instead a 1.04 version in a folder called BU40N-N-Main.
Finally, realized there is a google drive link above link I quoted for all the firmware you need and it has a 1.03MK version. Do I first upgrade to this then to 1.04MK or stay with 1.03MK?

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2022
Still run into the "No drive tool logic found in SDF.bin" error
Got a new BU40N drive:
Drive Information
OS device name: G:
Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BD-RE BU40N
Revision: 1.04
Serial number:
Firmware date: 2120-05-06 11:42
Bus encryption flags: 17
LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible (with patched firmware)
Drive platform: MT1959
Harware support: Yes
Firmware support: No
Run the command as described with the image from the "The all you need firmware pack" and even tried to flash the "DE_LG_BU40N_1.00.bin", still the same issue :/
.\makemkvcon64.exe f --all-yes -d G: rawflash enc -i .\HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.03-NM00000-211810241934.bin
No drive tool logic found in SDF.bin
Internal error 0x8d000000
Also followed the troubleshooting steps by opening a regular Blu-ray wihtout any error messages and still get the same error :/
Any ideas?

Did some more search and found one of you post, with the recommendation to plugin the drive directly via sata.
I'll try this later when Im back at home
