I did that. It does not work. Well, it says it is successful, but the firmware does not change.

End of babysitting. You should think about why others can and you can't. So where is the root cause?

I never asked you for anything. I was asking how to get a drive, and the creator of the thread for upgrading offered some help, which I tried to no avail. You don't have to be an asshole.

You just picked the most complicated drive to flash for UHD and now you can't get it fixed which makes me an asshole. That's logic applied.

Look, you started this. As I said, I was looking to buy a drive, and you asked me for info. And then end up complaining that you're tired of babysitting. And now claim you really wanted to help. Please don't. I do not want a babysitter. I will keep trying to purchase a drive, or preferably get the "Flash Kit" for this drive.

I flashed another drive, have a Plex server with an 80TB RAID5 repository with remote access, and everything works quite well. I have issues with a few discs not being read by the drive I already flashed. I wanted to have another to use in these cases so I could reasonably determine if I had a marginal drive or a marginal disc.

You are completely off. I never recommended this drive and only got in when you failed to to flash this drive for UHD. Your blahblah is not interesting to anybody. Concentrate on to get this drive flashed or put it in the trash box if you can't.

Nobody here said you recommended anything. I never asked you a single question. You jumped in while I was working with someone else.
