Re: UHD Flashing service

You should post the fee, understand the shipping rates can very, but are you doing this for free, if not then how much? Appreciate this, it's a service that I believe some could use. You might want to add the LG WH14NS40 (sc: NS50) to your list, even though it's not listed, it's been verified on the...

Re: UHD drives

Anyone try to cross update the firmware of a LG 1.03 to the Asus 3.02 and then back again to the LG 1.02? I have actually done this now, and it worked fine. loading the LG with the ASUS firmware seemed to unlock the higher speed the ASUS is known for. the unit is now sitting at the stock LG 1.02 OK...

Re: WH14NS40 SVC - NS50 FIRMWARE 1.03

OK, I'm in the same boat. I got this WH14NS40 NS50 1.03 for a hackintosh (suggested Hackintosh recognized drive) build and see its UHD friendly and need to downflash to 1.02. Anyone crossflash to Asus 3.02 and then to LG 1.02 to see if that works?

Re: UHD drives

Hello. So, I'm building a hackintosh. Listed as an optical drive that's hackintosh friendly is the LG WH14NS40. I ordered one from Amazon and got the NS50 version but with ROM 1.03 with a Jan. 2018 build date on the sticker. OK, so I hadn't seen this drive as UHD friendly, but doing a search I came ...
