I have two different computers, both are perfectly capable of flashing the old Lite-On and the two Hitachis I have. Who wants to buy this piece of shit drive? I've spent three days reading this forum, Team Executer's forums, 7sins etc. and absolutely no work around solves the problem. The drive is in vendor mode with no flash, it will not allow me to read or write to the drive.
So youre not selling your drive anymore then? lol.
Quite clearly they are NOT perfectly capable of flashing LiteOn's. There is NOTHING diffrent to this new drive to the old ones. But clearly your SATA controller is not one of the recommended.
Seriously stop complaining and bitching and do as your are told and get a X360USB Pro. That will sort it for you.
