Manufacturing date of 23 December 2021.
Of course it came with firmware version 1.03

Just flashed it and it shows the following:

Drive Information
OS device name: F:
Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BD-RE WH16NS60
Revision: 1.02
Serial number: M00LCOG5159
Firmware date: 2118-10-29 19:36
Bus encryption flags: 17
Highest AACS version: 76

LibreDrive Information
Status: Enabled
Drive platform: MT1959
Firmware type: Patched (microcode access re-enabled)
Firmware version: 1.02
DVD all regions: Yes
BD raw data read: Yes
BD raw metadata read: Yes
Unrestricted read speed: Yes

No disc inserted

I did the flashing using a SATA cable, because when I first had the drive in my OWC Mercury Pro external case it was not detected.
I *think* it saw the USB chipset or something, because with an audio CD it would detect a 388MB drive.
The case has been working fine for several years now with a flashed Asus BW-16D1HT.

Putting the drive in there after this post and see what happens then.
Kinda weird, but glad the drive is fine because it came from the USA to NL because the drive here in over twice as expensive.

Yep, use windows 10.

I don't use MakeMKV on Linux… but the result of command 3 was:

Code: Select all

00: dev_21:7, /dev/sr1, /dev/sr1
  HL-DT-ST_BD-RE_BP50NB40_1.01_211711231615_SIKBCIABN1311

but in your command 4 you changed dev_21:7 to /dev_21:7. Maybe try it without the leading slash.

Or try substituting /dev/sr1 into your command.

"./makemkvcon f -d '/IOBDServices/D5D25996' -f /tmp/sdf.bin rawflash main -i /tmp/your firmware filename here

I flashed my LG WH16NS60 and it works fine with MakeMKV, but DVDFab Passkey complains the drive is not usable.

My ASUS BW-16D1HT works fine with both, but it's been so long since I flashed it I just can't remember if I used this forum for it or another one.

I accidently flashed a Desktop to a Slim Drive. What do I do know? I've been trying to restore it to the way it was before for hours now, but with no success. Can anyone kindly help me please?

My Drive name is LG WH16NS40.
(My original intent was to downgrade my firmware, which was at 1.05 because my Blu-ray drive did not want to read my new Blu-ray discs that I bought at all, but I could easily rip them through Make MKV Software).


Thank you!
Sapphire.
