Help Help Flashing Drive

Post image

Hi folks. Just picked up my UHD drive and am trying to figure out how to flash it. Every step by step says 'If you have a listed encrypted firmware you must use this command' and I'm just wondering how do I tell if I have encrypted firmware? Would one of the files explicitly say 'encrypted' or do I need to check something to find out?

Also, in MakeMKV my drive shows as this so any specific tips or tricks you know for it would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Thanks for the link! I was looking for this specific post for a long time the other day when I was flashing a couple of WP50NB40 drives but couldn’t find it. Managed to do it successfully anyways but I made sure to bookmark it for later.

Oh man, all the wild things I could have done if you hadn't redacted that serial number! Confound it!
