Greetings! Great website, a lot to read.

Drive had firmware 1.0, downloaded the current version 1.02 from Vinpower Digital.
If I enable LibreDrive, will that affect the drive's error algorithms?
If I enable LibreDrive, will I be able to re-flash the Vinpower 1.02 firmware?
How do I enable LibreDrive? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Your drive can be flashed to read UHDs if you want this. No disadvatages, only advantages. And it can be flashed back to Vinpower software.
