LG WH14NS40 firmware version with fastest read speed?

Post by tiny_pie »

See title. Is it 1.00? 1.02? Does it even matter?

Thanks! I saw in the WH14NS40 1.00 thread that the OP was getting 50 MB/s, but I’m only seeing low 30s MB/s on 1.02 MK. Just wondering if I’m doing something wrong or if 1.00 would be faster?

You did enable speed control in MakeMKV settings, right?

Thanks for the tip! I overlooked it because the setting was not in the GUI. I found the instructions thread though and enabled unlimited speed (0=99). I was able to hit a peak read speed 51.6 MB/s, which is a huge improvement vs before :D

Question: Is there a way to show the average and peak read speed in the logs?
