Leave it alone unless you are having UHD read issues. Not worth flashing it otherwise as you don't gain anything.

Thank you for the advice, will leave it alone then
The only small issue I experience is that "Exact Audio Copy" (EAC) is reporting the drive is unable to successfully detect C2 Errors during audio CD ripping. But nothing indicates that the newer firmware 3.10MK improves this.

Hey Billy quick question, I bought a BP50NB40 NB52 drive, it reads normal blu rays fine, and if I messed up the drive that's my mistake, but I flashed it to libre drive 2 months ago, and I didn't cross flash it, after the first flash, so it says "Libredrive enabled" and all that, but I never cross flashed it to the BP60NB10 or whatever. I also have the original backup still from the first time I flashed it, but I'm just curious if I can fix it, cause I tried flashing it again and it won't flash at all, even though SDF Tool says it flashed. Again it reads normal blu rays fine, but when I do UHD Blu rays it doesn't work in MakeMKV.
