Hi,

i just bought the Verbatim 43888 with BU40N Hitachi-LG drive.
and tried to understand the Flash guide but i am stuck a bit.

the MakeMKV says

is it possible to flash ? is the Revision OK ?
and how does i make the Command ?

.\makemkvcon64.exe f --all-yes -d F: rawflash enc -i "C:\temp\HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.03-NM00000-211810241934.bin

Open your cmd or Powershell terminal inside the folder where makemkvcon64.exe happens to be. Also, make sure HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.03-NM00000-211810241934.bin is inside the C:\temp\ folder

Then :

Code: Select all

.\makemkvcon64.exe f --all-yes -d D: rawflash enc -i "C:\temp\HL-DT-ST-BD-RE_BU40N-1.03-NM00000-211810241934.bin"
After that, power off the drive (if it's a Verbatim 43888 it should be an external drive, so you can just unplug it), and wait 30 seconds. Put the power back on (plug it back in), and enjoy. :)
