I have a WH14NS40 that I thought was too old to be a NS50 model, but after opening up my case and checking the label, sure enough, it's a 50. So I plan to flash LibreDrive support onto it, but I noticed multiple versions of that drive's firmware have been posted here recently.Lg Wh14ns40 Downgrade Firmware
Billycar11's pack with the patched flash utility includes a 1.02 firmware per this post:

But then Mike's more recent master firmware collection has a 1.03 file:
https://www.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic ... 113#p71880
Should I go with the 1.03 version? I had thought the point was to revert to 1.02, before LG locked out the UHD capabilities, but maybe I'm missing something. Can someone explain what the difference is between the two files?
LibreDrive Drives - Www.makemkv.com
As a follow-up question, I really only want LibreDrive support to disable the 'SilentPlay' speed lock on this drive, so I can rip my 1080p discs at full speed (I don't plan to rip any 4k discs anytime soon). My understanding from looking around the forums is that speed limitations haven't been addressed in any of the LD firmwares yet. Is that accurate? And if so, is there any other benefit for me to do the flash right now, other than the UHD read capabilities? Or should I just wait till a version is available that takes off the speed lock?
