Are those slim drives pretty reliable? I assumed that the old internal ones would outlast time itsel...

Re: LG WH16NS40 not responding to SDFTool_Flasher
Oh. And I forgot in the previous post:
It's in a Vantec external enclosure so it's connecting to the computer over USB. This is the same setup I had used previously when I successfully flashed my last blu ray drive.
