Should I flash for Libre Support? WH16NS40 1.00 Firmware

Post by goaliebob99 »

I have a WH16NS40 that reads UHD bluray's fine. It was manufactured in October 17th of 2015 and has SVC Code NS50. Should I flash this for libre support?

If yes do I upgrade to 1.3 via offical LG upgrade, and then cross flash to the Mk version, or should I just leave this drive alone and let it be?

So, as it is clearly telling you it’s already enabled. What other Libredrive support are you looking for or expecting to enable exactly?
