Re: UHD-friendly drive advice UK

Please be aware that the Asus BC-12D2HT does not write blu rays only reads them, your old drive is a writer and also a little faster, the old vs new flashing methods are different now and easier.

Re: Just Bought the Asus BC-12D1HT

Thank you, are there other firmware versions that will work with this drive or is the 3.01MK the best to use?

Re: Just Bought the Asus BC-12D1HT

Thanks, is it advisable to make a copy and dump the original firmware of the drive or is this no longer necessary? If it's still required (for safe keeping just in case) what utility should I use to do this? is Dosflash still the tool to do this or can it be done with the modified Asus ODD FW Changer?
