Count me in to that group that got suckered by the LG website. I read their readme files from top to bottom and they never mention anything about the different models. Almost like they want to forget the NS40 versions ever existed though they won't change the stupid model number. Even if they've discontinued support for the NS40s, they should at least post some kind of a warning about it.

So, in my case, I can still flash the drive successfully using makemkvcon on Linux (NS50 firmwares). Can I attempt to flash the NS40 firmware with that or do I still need to use the dosflash method? I'm trying to be very careful about my next step now that I know what happened. The drive is currently in a USB enclosure (Mercury Pro), but I could find an old computer to put it in if necessary.

Sorry, Billy. Don't mean to be annoying. Just so many threads here it's hard to navigate through them all. I'm reading the SDFTool thread now.
