Ixtreme 1.4, Firmware Toolbox And Hitachi78fk
« on: December 09, 2007, 02:29:00 AM »
Can I just open the iXtreme 1.4 FW, paste my key in and flash it to the drive? or do I have to wait for the next version of firmware toolbox?

the firmware is not written properly for a v78 drive and therefor the only way you could use this firmware with your drive is to use an external programmer and remove the chip and flash it to an older firmware revision then it would work (Not worth it) otherwise if you try to force it and it does write anything from this release to your firmware chip the option of writing with a programmer will be your only hope.  Better off waiting.  it will come.  (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
