Re: SDFtool Flasher

Thanks. Trouble is you never know which version of .NET framework may be out of date, Microsoft just has too many variants and no easy way to tell if they are all up to date. They really need to unify that a bit better. In any event I got it working. Of all the crazy things, I plugged the drives int...

Re: SDFtool Flasher

I'm getting a .NET error when I launch the program on two different Windows 10 machines that I have tried. Any idea what I can do? I've tried the simple Googled fixes but with no joy.

Re: Ability to downgrade the newest WH16NS40's

You will most likely be able to make the drive friendly. However, I would certainly buy a WH14NS40 because it's cheaper and you can flash it to a WH16NS40, or ASUS BH16D1HT, or WH16NS60, or whatever you want.

Re: Best UHD Friendly Drive to Flash To?

Just to finalize this, I wound up flashing two drives with LG WH16NS60 1.02-MK and two with ASUS BH16D1HT 3.10-MK. The drive that wouldn't write correctly with the ASUS firmware is good with WH16NS60. This way my friend and I can have one of each type of drive in our machines since some firmware's r...

Re: Best UHD Friendly Drive to Flash To?

So I wound up getting four WH14NS40's and flashing them to ASUS BH16D1HT 3.10-MK. Of the three, they all rip equally quickly on the ASUS FW. However, three of the four burn BD-R's perfectly, but one of the four will just spit out a fresh coaster as soon as the write process begins. That drive burns ...

Re: Best UHD Friendly Drive to Flash To?

Confirmed, WH16NS60 1.00 does not work with AnyDVD. Rip speed with MakeMKV was also within three seconds of ASUS BH16D1HT 3.10-MK.

I'm back on ASUS and will probably stay there especially if writing works.

Re: Best UHD Friendly Drive to Flash To?

you forgot the best firmware WH16NS60 1.00/.02 As I think I understand it, than the drive will no longer work with AnyDVD? Also, in all my downloading, I have never come across the 1.00 for the NS50. However, I think I remember Mike saying in some thread that this firmware made the drive both offic...

Re: Best UHD Friendly Drive to Flash To?

So I did some experimenting and also picked up a WH14NS40 NS50 today. I first flashed the WH14NS40 to ASUS BH16D1HT 3.10-MK and then ripped an ISO of a small single layer UHD disc using AnyDVD. The time to rip the ISO with the ASUS firmware was 626 seconds. I then ripped the same disc in the WH16NS4...

Best UHD Friendly Drive to Flash To?

So I've read a ton and was able to buy and flash an LG WH16NS40 NS50 1.04 to the UHD friendly 1.03 firmware today. Everything went fine and the drive is now reading UHD discs perfectly. In my reading, it quickly became obvious that lots of folks like to crossflash their drives to different models, a...
