Glad I came across this post -- I have a feeling I ordered from the same 3rd party seller that shipped out of China (RIGX). Thought I was going crazy encountering the error with SDFtool and tried flashing via Powershell and even via Mac terminal since MakeMKV kept showing LibreDrive status enabled, but I encountered the same issue trying to use SDFtool and, regardless of how many times or what firmware I flashed, all the info in MakeMKV looked the same after each attempt.

Luckily I snagged the same model drive from Best Buy that's arriving soon -- showed as being a sold/shipped by them and not a 3rd party seller, so fingers crossed that one works, since I bought a few used UHD titles that apparently are 100GB UHDs that my Series X isn't able to read and just need to confirm they're actually UHDs and not counterfit lol

The current theory on the VGPC Discord is that the fake drive I got is the correct internal drive in a fake/incompatible enclosure. (Because MakeMKV does say it is the correct platform.) They suggested I try a cheapo enclosure from Aliexpress that they say has a good success rate when a valid drive is put inside it. We’ll see!
