The guide suggests:

WH16NS40 on any Firmware directly to > WH16NS60 1.02MK

I recommend using Marty's SDFtool Flasher since you are running Windows.

Thanks, found the flasher and the zip with firmware’s in the forums while waiting on a reply, last time for my pioneer it wasn’t posted for easy access, purchased an OWC Mercury Pro enclosure with drive included, supposed to have full support but it wouldn’t even start up a UHD in VLC, how pathetic these people are, bottom of the barrel sales I tell you that. The Java Script for VLC DVD menus is cool too, I like how make MKV work so far after purchase.
