I also have a BRUHD-PU3-BK13 with the BU13 firmware.
I tried the 'ASUS_ODD_FW_Changer_(Modified).exe' tool with multiple firmwares (HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.03-NM00000-211810241934.bin, DE_Buffalo_BRUHD-PU3_BU10.bin, DE_LG_BU40N_1.00.bin, HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-BU12-OM01001-211902230922.bin) without success.
I also tried them with sdftool_flasher.exe with and without encryption and I get an error each time.
I would really appreciate if someone can explain how to get LibreDrive on a BRUHD-PU3-BK13 with BU13.

Do't use the old ASUS flasher. Use the SDFtool Flasher (with "enc").nodisknolife wrote: ↑Sat Sep 25, 2021 4:54 amHello everyone on this board!!

Re: Baffalo BRUHD-PU3 BU13 to BU10 failure
I don't think the problem is with the tool but with the firmware.
This thread is about patching the Buffalo drive that has BU13 (not BU12).
I am using sdftool with HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-BU12-OM01001-211902230922.bin (and I tried others too).
It fails whether I check the encryption or not.

Your issue is that BU13 is pretty new and hasn't been added to the encrypted firmware list yet.
Can you open the flasher again (don't run it, just open it) and select your drive in the first drop box. I need you to write down exactly what is showing for your drive in the drop box and let me know. I can then add it to the encrypted firmware list.
Cheers

Re: Baffalo BRUHD-PU3 BU13 to BU10 failure
I figured out why it kept failing: The external buffalo drives comes with two usb cables (for 'boost' although I am not sure as the doc is in japanese or chinese).stehlincom wrote: ↑Wed Sep 29, 2021 2:26 amI don't think the problem is with the tool but with the firmware.

It fails whether I check the encryption or not.
If you only plug the large one then apply the steps provided by nodisknolife below, then it works:
0. only plug the main USB cable.
1.Get SDFtool Flasher v1.2.0 *The latest version, v1.2.2, does not have the "enc?" option, so 1.2.0 must be used.

3.Flash DE_Buffalo_BRUHD-PU3_BU10.bin not with "enc?" option
Also, It looks like it is possible to then apply the optional microcode patch:
4. Flash HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.04-NM00500-212005061142.bin without enc? option (i.e unchecked)

Re: Baffalo BRUHD-PU3 BU13 to BU10 failure
Ok, so that means BU13 is not encrypted. You just didn't plug in all the USB connectors! You should always plug both USB's in otherwise the drive does not get enough power to fulfill the drive's power and data requirements.stehlincom wrote: ↑Wed Sep 29, 2021 11:30 pmI figured out why it kept failing: The external buffalo drives comes with two usb cables (for 'boost' although I am not sure as the doc is in japanese or chinese).stehlincom wrote: ↑Wed Sep 29, 2021 2:26 amI don't think the problem is with the tool but with the firmware.

Re: Baffalo BRUHD-PU3 BU13 to BU10 failure
Thanks Billy, but that doesn't say for sure if it is encrypted or not. The person who flashed his drive also didn't mention if he used "enc" or not. Also, that was more than a month ago. If it is in fact encrypted, the encrypted firmware list needs updating.
Cheers
