OmniDrive-related warning for Buffalo BRXL-PUS6U3B

[Sayaka]

I assume lots of people would tend to think OmniDrive (1.0.4) can be flashed and used by redumper on just about any "BU40N-class" drive. Apparently, this is not so.

Aside from the fact that the wiki used to warn people about some enclosures blocking the flashing commands needed for OmniDrive, it would appear that there are some enclosures that will allow you to flash custom LibreDrive/OmniDrive firmware but will also block the OmniDrive commands for OmniDrive detection and Wii game disc ripping (for example) that redumper needs.

(Untested) If you own a BRXL-PUS6U3B and wish to rip GameCube/Wii/Xbox discs, you may in fact need to remove the BU40N from the enclosure and either connect it with a SATA to USB adapter or use another enclosure that doesn't seem to mind OmniDrive commands.

For what it's worth, BP55EB40 drives do not have that issue, as far as I know.
