EDIT: I am in US and only use MakeMKV so I think I wanted 1-03MK firmware? Only saw 2 of each model was available and needed 4 (for myself and coworkers - bundling to save shipping) so ordered 2 of each? Was that right?
EDIT 2: Asmcom helped me out today - recommended for my use the BP55 with the 1-03mk firmware and let me adjust my order. Really appreciated the help. I then had horrible trouble sending payment, ended up being totally a fault on my end (my PayPal was being really weird) but Asmcom was super patient and I finally got it sorted out.
Thank you for your order and for updating your post with your experience!
We're glad we were able to help you choose the right firmware for your setup. Since you're only using MakeMKV, the BP55 with 1.00MK firmware is an excellent choice and should serve you and your coworkers very well. We recommend not updating this firmware, as newer does not always mean better.
No worries at all about the PayPal issue either. These things happen from time to time, and we're just pleased we were able to get everything sorted in the end.
Your order has now been processed, tested, and you should have it very shortly. We hope you all enjoy your new drives!
Thank you once again for your patience and for choosing Asmcom. We really appreciate your support.
Kind Regards,
Tracey
