Needless to say I instantly pulled it out of its enclosure and put it in another one. I'd love to get this cross-flashed to a UD04 and would appreciate any instructions on how to do this.

Thanks.

This is from a verbatim external, just purchased from retail.

Can I have the instructions to cross-flash to UD04, please?

My flashed Verbatim Lg-Drive seems to have some Hash errors with a few BDs.
So I would try my older Verbatim Pioneer.
Can you help me to unleash it for UHD?
Thank you in advance from Germany
