Does the samsung 2.01 need a new jungle flasher because when i go to flash my ms25 drive it shows up as LT 2.0 is this correct??

[PacinoAllstars]

Is one of the listed liteon drives also the recommended drive to rip original games?

yes, if you want it to autoload 2.01.  Just select it manually.

Not really, you only need a new JF if you want it to say LT2.01 in JF. You can still flash LT2.01 using old JF it's definitions are just not updated to say LT2.01 so feel free to flash away...

No, you need an Xbox 360 Benq/Liteon drive to rip with new 0800 fw installed on it, - as per release nfo, to rip xbox 360 games. The listed burners are for burning the new large disc images.

my arita disks fail verify at 50% at 4x speed, cant test 2.4x as my 224b doesnt support that low burning, orderd me some verbatims

I've had a look through all six firmwares using MediaCodeSpeedEdit (MCSE), all six firmwares have the same entries in their media code tables (with a new "MKM-0a3" replacing MKM-003 in the iXtreme versions) with only one exception: the iHAS-324 and iHAS524 "know about" one additional DVD-RAM disc that the others don't.

Whether the writing strategies differ between the drives though, I don't know. In case you fancy crossflashing to a different version and trying that out, the firmware details are:-

iHAS-124 B AL0S 2011/08/11 10:09
iHAS-224 B GL0A 2011/05/12 13:37
iHAS-324 B AL1B 2011/09/06 15:01
iHAS-424 B GL1A 2011/05/12 13:28
iHAS-524 B AL2A 2011/09/14 14:47
iHAS-624 B GL29 2011/05/10 09:24

If you don't mind losing LabelFlash I'd recommend crossflashing (read the guides) to an iHAS-524B which appears to be the newest of the lot.

Or a Philips DROM6316, apparently

Does anyone from Australia know where to buy a compatible drive?
Does the Lite-on MSY sell have the required 'B' chipset?

[firestorm2yk]

PC Case Gear have the Asus DRW-24B3LT drives in stock for $29 for those looking for drives that are guaranteed to be cross flashable.

Have one in my machine now and it works great.

You can use the staticice search engine to search for other Australian retailers who sell either the liteon drives or cross flashable ones.

Will this drive work ?

reason I ask is it doesn't have the B in it that the listed drives have

[tandynor]

I have the Lite-on  Ihas 124B, flashed with the ixtreme burner max 1.0 FW. I burned Forza 4 @ 2.4x speed on the verbatims 2.4x discs. disc burned all the way through, but when I play it after 1 race I still got the unauthorized Disc error? I thought this was supposed to fix that issue???  

any ideas? I have a slim xbox 360 0225, with Xecuter replacement PCB. FW 2.0

[$lacker]

Does LTPlus 2.01 have built-in security checks to prevent a user from using improperly burned discs? I just want to confirm that the discs I burned years ago with old games will still function

I don't care about Xbox Live, I just want everything to boot and be playable

[tullyfish]

People asking "Will this IHAS XXX drive from XXXXXXX" be a B"?

Nobody can say for sure but I don't think anyone buying a drive in last week or so has reported getting an "A" drive.  By all accounts they are over a year old so unless you are buying dusty old stock from some local mom and pop store ...

AFAIK LT doesn't check anything.  It is up to the user to make sure they are verified - and should play all existing burns.

Forza works fine for me, i take they verified ok in IMGBURN 2.5.6.0? Has the ISO been ripped from the original correctly and does it disc error in the same part of the game?

I would avoid play.  Pll have phoned them and they do not expect stock this month.  That "4-5 days" is BS.

Ppl have been happy buying from ebuyer, novatech, btshop, dabs, scan and CCL.  All B stock.
