congrats on the upgraded drive, one question though - what updater did you use to get to bn11, I'm seeing only the 2.00 updater from Buffalo which you linked earlier, not sure if this contains what I need?
Do I even need to update or do I just cross-flash to 1.03 from Mike?

Thanks for all the info!

You should use the modified ASUS flasher.

OK thank you, that's all I needed to know to get on with it.
I'll report back

So how did it go? My Buffalo drive really needed the LG LibreDrive FW (1.03) in order to read the UHD blu-ray discs.

I always use the 1.00 BU40N firmware I wonder what the differences are.

I've got pre-flashed BU40Ns for sale in either the Buffalo or Vantec enclosures. Immediate shipping available.

Hi All,

I just get my Buffalo BRUHD-PU3 today, and I am using DVDFab UHD tool to downgrade it to BU10 by just a click, and completely successful.

just wanted to report back that my Buffalo BRXL-PT6U2VB is a UHD-friendly device now:

1. Crossflashing worked like a charm with this MK firmware

2. Device shows up as LibreDrive compatible:

@mike admin

Just in case you might be still interested in Buffalo firmwares, they released a new FW update tool [brdrive_fwupdater_200.exe], featuring:

a. Buffalo_BU40N_FW_Updater_2.01.exe
b. Buffalo_BH16NS58_FW_Updater_2.01.exe

It works!

- I used the firmware you linked
- I used the ASUS Crossflash exe if found on this site

Took all of 2 minutes.

Thanks planet1 for your post
