Just some clarification on my drives

[jcdick1]

I have two drives:

Code: Select all

Manufacturer: HL-DT-ST
Product: BDDVDRW UH12NS40
Revision: 1.01

And

Code: Select all

Manufacturer: ASUS
Product: BW-16D1HT
Revision: 3.02

From these old stock firmware revisions, are there any special steps needed for flashing? Or can I just go straight to the latest MK firmware in the ZIP?

Thanks!

need more info then that post the makemkv info the asus might already not need to be flashed it if is on the correct 3.02

[jcdick1]

What additional information is needed, and what would be the best way to get it? It's never been flashed, and the firmware date is

"Firmware date: 2117-11-15 17:16"

So I guess its a time-traveling drive.

Since you said it may not need to be flashed, I tried my Sherlock Holmes 4K and MakeMKV reports "no disc".

Thanks!
