The Xtreme V4 for samsung will be out very very soon
and already has a toggle to turn on/off reading/writing to the firmware.

I have fully debugged the MS28 lockable firmware routines
and will provide this functionality in this revision.

There is also new debug routines to enable the host to do this (360)
and this will be emulated incase they use that routine to unlock the firmware and read it.

The Xtreme V4 will make all the MS25 drives into MS28 drives complete
with firmware locking and unlocking only in 0800 mode.

This will enable you to reflash very easy.


Strange. I dont know a thing about this, but surley making it like a ms28 would be bad? , and also what does he mean by the host emulating the routine, incase ms use it to read the firmware. does that mean it would report the firmware as original, hence stealth?



Strange and confusing! but good biggrin.gif

Thats laid my mind to rest a bit, since im using samsung drive, but now i cant wait till see whats in v4 lol

Thanks for all the comments gary and others. beerchug.gif


I think samsung firm needs some improvment (if it´s possible) on speed patch... It´s running a little bit unstable (I don´t no if it´s just for me)...

but some times drive goes from full speed to low speed very quickly... maybe this will make it´s life shorter... don´t understand to mutch about it thoug!!!

sorry for bad english (i´m from Brazil)...

Keep up the good work and good luck with the new Hitachi drive!  biggrin.gif

PS: please, what´s the speed of samsung (1.0) and samsung (3.2+)? is it possible to do a firm that reads the disc half speed?

Thanks!!!

Gary, ive recently found out i have a hitachi, not a samsung so i have alot to thank you for.

Do you think we will ever have full media stealth on the hitachi like the samsung? And can the mediacheck patch be made any better or is it at its best now?

Thanks
