Okay so i bought a Buffalo BRXL-16u3

Mkv has this info when drive is active

I have the All you need fw pack and the SDFTool, unpacked and ready.

+ The drive has been removed from the enclosure
+ SDFTool Says the Firmware is Encrypted.

I have seen some posts about this drive but none that match the *NS58. Maybe my brain skipped something in the search or I'm just missing it. I am in need of a correct fw to flash. If i could get a bit of help on a step by step on this drive. I am willing to do this and learn so i don't have to bother anyone later. I will admit, I learn better hands on then reading. On that I am willing to pay for this to be done, because I know this knowledge doesn't come free.


Those that respond Thank You in advance for your time.

okay got brave!

SDFTool

1. Dumped the fw to storage
2. selected my drive, write, WH16ns60 1.02mk From the LG 5.25 fw HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_WH16NS60-1.02-NM00100-211810291936
3. SDFTool now reads: HL-DT-ST_BD-RE__WH16NS60_1.02_211810291936_KL5OA8E5200 , NOT encrypted
