Ultimate UHD Drives Flashing Guide Updated 2023
Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
I read about LG WH16NS40 as being good for bluray ripping if firmware gets downgraded. But I can't seem to find that model. Instead, I can find LG BH16NS40 - is this model any good?
Or what other models are most reliable?

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
In my experience of 300+ drives the bu40n is the most reliable. The bh16ns40 is fine if it gets no read errors it's the same as the wh16ns40 just the boxes version

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
by bu40n you mean LG BU40N, which is a laptop blu-ray drive?
does it require to have a certain SVC code or something else very specific, like it is suggested here in the case of the BH16NS40 - https://www.myce.com/news/the-ultimate- ... ive-83254/ ?

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
I tried "CSL – USB 3.0 SSD/SATA Adaptor Converter for SSD SATA 1/2/3 2.5 Inches (6.35 cm) HDD 3.5 SATA Drive (HDD/SSD) USB Attached SCSI Protocol (UASP) including mains adaptor" from Amazon.de but it didn't work with otical disc drives. Are there any simple SATA to USB adapters under say 20 euros on Amazon.de that would work or do I need to get a more expensive enclosure?

Hello, I have an ASUS BW-16D1HT with firmware 3.10.
Can anyone remote control assist me or something to do this? And how to do it fixing the sleep bug?

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
I did, but those aren't available in Europe. Ordering from the US means additional postage and customs charges and non-European power adapter. Does anyone have experience with Inateck's Unitek branded converter (https://www.amazon.de/dp/B00N4JLNXM)? It's advertised as being compatible with optical drives but so was the CSL one...
Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
Thank you to everyone for an easy to follow guide. Just purchased my WH16NS40 and changed the firmware no problem. Testing first disc and so far, all is great.

Re: Ultimate UHD Drives Guide Updated 2019
There are some bad reviews there. It appears to be a cheap copy with a dodgy power supply. We don't buy cheap junk. It's just not worth it. Better of spending a little more for a better quality one.Sodapop74 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 17, 2020 12:28 amI did, but those aren't available in Europe.
