Hi guys, Billy kindly remotely changed the firmware on my BU40N last week from 1.04 to 1.00 and all has been well. However, I'm trying to rip Warrior UHD today and am getting the following in the log, does anyone know how to get it to work? MakeMKV v1.15.4 win(x64-release) started Error 'OS error - ...

Most likely you are not the most technical savvy person. I suggest to take the drive out of the USB enclosure and connect it directly to the SATA port in your PC and try the flash.

Native Windows? Any chance to connect it to another computer?

How is the drive attached? USB and extra SATA ports with non-mainboard chips can be troublesome.

You need to flash 1.04 MK with enc check first. Only then you can downgrade to 1.03 (enc unchecked!). But literally nothing happens when I click 'Start'?

Hi guys,

I'm looking to replace my old Corsair 200r case and am looking at something without a 5.25" drive as my need for a blu ray drive is decreasing, but I'd still like to have the option.
