Need help identifying this drive's mechanism For UHD flashing

[Linus90234]

Hi, everyone.
Newcomer here, recently just bought an ASUS SBW-06D2X-U A102 that was manufactured in 2025. Would be really appreciated if anyone can tell me whether or not it can become an UHD-friendly drive. Here are some informations:

MakeMKV:
Manufacturer: ASUS
Product: SBW-06D2X-U
Revision: A102
Serial number: MO6O7192702
Firmware date: 2121-06-28 13:41
Bus encryption flags: 1F

LibreDrive Information
Status: Possible, not yet enabled
Drive platform: MT1959

I've also dump the firmware and attached to file.
Thank you very much

Treat it as a BU40N

Yes, your ASUS can be flashed to UHD capability.
As tomty89 wrote there is a LG BU40N inside, which can be flashed to fimware BU40N 1.03MK.

Try it. All you need you can find here.

Got one of these and it's not cooperating.


Any ideas?

Google search on the error code points to "Take the disk out of the drive, try again."
