Question about LG BH16NS55 drives

[sergiofarrar]

Hello,
A few months ago, I purchased two of these drives and updated them to firmware version 1.02. The flashing process seemed to go smoothly. I then set up a Linux machine, installed the drives, and configured all the necessary software to run MakeMKV as a command-line tool (essentially a headless server with no UI).

When I run makemkvcli to rip a disc, it recognizes the drive as "HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_WH16NS60_XXXXXXXXXXX" (with the serial number at the end). Is this normal? I didn't check the drive’s status before flashing it, so I'm not sure if this is related to the firmware update.
