Hey,
I have a Hitachi 59D in my son's box, he does play on live and am wondering what my steps should be now? Should i except the updated dash, and then flash to LT+1.1 or wait until a new firmware is released for the hitachi? Seeing as though (i know they are a pain) they are being sidelined in favour of the other drives etc?
Not quite sure what to do, my boy is 5 and letting him use my originals isn't an option really!
What are my options?
Thanks all.
Hey,
I have an Hitachi 79 drive, I put stock firmware on it and did the update. The key location stayed the same as the older version of JF still read the keys after the update. I believe C4eva said that Hitachi drives are 'ignored' in the update as they have no ability to handle AP2.5 challenges.
I'm going to use it on Live as I don't think new firmware will be released for it because it is not needed.
People say Hitachi sucks, but we won't have to reburn our 'back ups' so I'll take my low tech Hitachi over a lite-on.
Hope that helps, but as always there is a risk.
Later.
