Buffalo 5 1/4" USB for sale w/LG drives, 4K/UHD firmware pre-flashed!
Posted: Fri Jan 30, 2026 12:59 am
Hello,
[2026-01-30 Update] - I have drives available, on-hand.
I'll periodically update this first post when stock is low, or I have additional drives coming.
I have NEW Buffalo 5 1/4" USB drives on-hand. All have been opened, connected to a Mac & had the drive and firmware verified with MakeMKV. They have a LG drive with firmware that I have flashed to be 4K/UHD compatible, for backing up 4K/UHD discs.
Drive details from MakeMKV:
LibreDrive Information
Drive platform: MT1959
I'm selling the drives for $265 USD, already flashed, new in box (only opened to verify drive Mfg/Model/flash Firmware).
These drives come with a disc of software that you *SHOULD NOT* use. Some software may offer/attempt to "update" a drive. If that software is installed/run, it may make the drive unusable with MakeMKV. I only include the discs, because they come in the box with the new drive.
Any questions, feel free to send me a PM, e-mail or post in this thread.
Thanks,
Frank
