Hi, Need help, please.
I think I’ve made a mistake flashing the below Asus SBW-06D2X-U. I flashed with SDFtool Flasher and MK firmware, ‘HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_WH16NS60-1.02-NM00100-211810291936’. It said it was successful but now the drive just has a flashing green light. Won’t open or read anything. My PC still recognises it. It shows up in explorer and MakeMKV. Shows driver details below. The drive just won’t eject or read. Just flashes green. I think; I’ve either flashed it with the wrong firmware, or, the wrong flasher? OR, both! Because the drive is still recognised. I hope this is fixable? Does anyone know what I should flash it with, and with what flasher, to fix it? It's a slimline Asus drive. I think another forum poster had the same problem, 'Maffo999', on page 21. Hope there was a solution?

Re: ASUS SBW-06D2X-U
It's a slim drive but you flashed it with internal desktop drive firmware. The one thing that the UHD drive flashing guide says not to do!!deano125 wrote: ↑Wed Jan 28, 2026 5:48 pmHi, Need help, please.

Use the RECOVER method of SDFtool flasher, selecting the drive's current firmware in the popup window then choose BU40N 1.03-MK in the normal firmware selection drop down box.
Cheers
