Re: Forum offline?

Any update on this issue. I too have noticed that the forum almost at random crawls and you get timeout and then suddenly is responsive. Is there something that can be done about that.

Re: UHD capable drive - UK based

Yes, you can flash some drives on your own. There is plenty of information here on the forums and you can get help from other users. They also offer flashing help where you pay some money and (I guess) they send you what you need with instructions on what to do etc. The issue now is getting hold of ...

The issue is that even though it could look like they are selling a genuine drive you don't know if they post real pictures. I have done some research into this and it seems that multiple users have drives for sale but they use the same pictures etc. Almost all sellers are from China and if you look...

Re: No more bluray burners available?

For now you will have to get a "second hand" one or "new" old stock that is not sold out. Seems there is some old stock left and they sell them on e-bay. You can probably get them else, don't ask me because I don't know. Looking back at things I believe that the only product left...
