BU50N originally on CC02, firmware date 2118-01-24 13:14.
After flashing BD-RE_BU40N-1.03-NM00000-211810241934.bin using SDFtool Flasher, MakeMKV still detects the drive as BU50N, but revision is now BOOT.
I have the original SDFtool partial dump with the six data/calibration files, not a full firmware image.

Is there a verified recovery procedure and suitable firmware for this exact variant?

what case is your drive in many cases dont support flashing
and will put the drive in boot mode and be soft bricked

Billycar11, good shout that... had a mate with a drive mounted in one of those cheap slimline USB caddies and it went straight to boot mode first flash, no coming back from it. Worth FalconX popping the drive out the enclosure if he can and checking its a proper one that passes the commands through rather than some dodgy bridge chip.
