Ah that's good to know thank you, I wanted to future proof that was all and prevent any future automatic firmware updates. So best to stick with this than look to update at all?

yes leave it as is. and nothing will update the firmware automatically.
but didn't you just buy this drive from someone on here likely me as i flash to that firmware for better compatibility with other rippers in that USB case.
as that drive normally comes with BN12 not BUxx or BU10 in your case
