Hi, I know is a bit stupid ask this while we have other posts saying, but since one wrong step may brick the device I wanna confirm if this drive is flashable and what firmware is the correct one.
This is a new drive that I just got today, I hope it's the correct device.

I found 2 firmwares, there are any difference?

and

Just to be sure, the one from MK pack seems the modded one, the one from the drive is the same or some updated version?

Flash it with BP60NB10 NB12 1.02 MK firmware.

I take a look in your FW pack but I didn't see NB12 specific firmware, only this one, I suppose this is incompatible:
And a doubt, this FW seems to be in the list of known encrypted firmwares, and the post said as well "If you have a LG BU40N external drive with encrypted firmware, flash this first... ...", My drive is a external but is not BU40N, means I don't need that step, right?

I found, the "DE_LG_BP60NB10-NB12_1.02-MK.bin" is the correct one.
But SDF Flasher tells that my FW is encrypted, means that I need to use official LG flash software instead?

No, you cannot use the official LG flasher. SDFtool Flasher wil automatically remove the firmware encryption. Yes, the DE_LG_BP60NB10-NB12_1.02-MK.bin is the correct firmware.
