BP50NB40-NB40-1.00-Clean.bin is for silly people that have flashed their older, incompatible BP50NB40 SVC NB40 drive and are trying to unbrick it.

LG BU40N 1.00 is the original firmware for the official UHD drive, LG BU40N.

I have an external lg drive WP50NB40 svc Code NB40. I made a big mistake flashing it with the MK firmware pack for UHD. I flashed it with the MK Firmware WP50NB40-NB50. Now the drive is a brick I cannot find the original firmware to get make my drive work again. Can anyone share a link to the original firmware or is there another way to get this drive to work again?

Thanks for any help
Can you try this and let us know if it works. Please download the attached firmware file.

1. Using SDFtool Flasher, select your drive
2. Select RECOVERY mode
3. In the popup window select the current firmware that is on the drive (whatever you flashed it to) -
4. In the firmware drop down box select the attached firmware (which is the original BP50NB40 (NB40) 1.00 firmware)
5. Press START.

Let us know what happens.
I have the similar problem. How I can flash my Slim Drive ? Do I need the old firmware ? How to get it ?
I created the Dump File -? dump_user_HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BP55EB40_1.03_212005070924_SIKZZICNI2648
I had this (1.03) firmware form the manufacturer website.
