ASUS SBW-06D2X-U

[dcoke22]

I'm following the guide but my Mac won't open any of the files I downloaded

On a Mac, you have to use the command line instructions. That involves using the Terminal application.

If you can 'borrow' a Windows PC and get your drive connected to it, you can install MakeMKV and use the SDFtool Flasher.

I'm so happy to have found this Site. And it will even be a better month with your Help

I borrowed a PC but am unsure of which firmware to flash from the "This Is All You Need Firmware Pack" folder, I'd assume ASUS? I ended up flashing the Asus 5.25 BW-16D1HT but the disk tray is not opening it just flashes LED's

I flashed it to this but it doesn't seem to be working

Never flash a firmware for an internal drive to an external one. You could brick the drive. Try the recovery mode. First choose the wrong firmware BW-16D1HT and for the reflash the BU40N 1.03MK.

Thanks, that's right, of course.

Hello, I have the Asus SBW-06D2X-U and I wanted to know how to flash it to be able to rip UHD discs.

This is my MakeMKV info:

Thanks in advance.

The platform MT1959 points out to a LG drive, which is working in the enclosure. Try flashing to LG BU40N 1.03MK. All you need (flashing tool, firmware pack), you'll find here in the first post ....viewtopic.php?f=16&t=19634

Thank u so much, it worked!!

I'm looking to flash my drive to Libredrive friendly firmware. Thanks in advance.

I used recovery mode and it successfully finished then I used Write for the LG Slim BP50NB40-N850 but an error message pops up with "Command Produced Error Code 0xxff05c103"
