Does this drive look like it was flashed already? Is this something you can't tell from looking at the data. I know it just spins up then stops and ejects. Also @billycar11 sent me the auto flasher but I can't get past the part where it says configuration files missing. I suspect that isn't part of what Billy sent me as they must be available here in the database of flash tools and I'm supposed to pull the 3.10 file from there drag and drop??? I don't get it. Please go easy on me I'm not that savvy when it comes to this particular task.
