Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2024

[Bigou]

Is MakeMKV installed (in the default location)? SDFtool Flasher is a front-end for the MakeMKV native flash utility. Met all the requirements detailed on the SDFtool Flasher page?

Oh god, I’m an idiot! I forgot to install MakeMKV! THAT was the problem. Once installed, it worked as it should. Thank you for pointing to me what essential part I forgot. (And sorry for the double-post, I was under the impression my message wasn’t sent the first time.)

Yes it worked not thanks.

What commands?

The directory path you used in your power shell script: Billy blahblah. We are sure that directory doesn't exist on your computer.

No clue I just followed the YouTube video

I see. But that was an example with the file locations on Billy's computer. Your computer had for sure another file location for the .bin files. You should have read the guide here thoroughly and on Windows use SDFToolFlasher which is the easiest way to do it. And you didn't follow the recommendation then what to flash. Call yourself lucky that you didn't screw up your drive regarding everything you did wrong. Fortunately you didn't try to flash a firmware of a slim drive but otherwise somebody can't make almost do more mistakes. In the future please don't do stuff anymore the way you do it.

I read the guide but I wasn't sure what it all meant. I'm stupid with computer stuff but I did it once before and I did it again. I downloaded the all you need firmware pack and the file for the NS60 was in there and it worked. My drive is the NS40 though so I'm not why I needed the NS60 file. I knew not to flash to a slim drive.

Alright. Ask upfront next time. Better safe than sorry.

Will do thanks

Will do thanks

You are welcome. Just be more prudent and cautious in the future. Asking for help upfront is not a weakness but wise.
