Slim
Identify slim drives
Currently several different slim drives exist:
- LiteOn DG-16D4S (FW Ver. 9504 or if updated 0272)
- LiteOn DG-16D4S (FW Ver. 0225 ,0401, 1071) (Drive Key can be dumped ONLY (unless unlocked))
- Hitachi (FW Ver. 0500)
Note: There are also some mis-labelled as 9504 and are actually 0225, the only 100% method is to connect your drive to your PC and see how it reports in Jungleflasher. If it reports as 0272 is has been updated by dashboard update 13146.
Currently Only the Lite-On Slim Drive with 9504/0272 (pre 13599 dashboard) can be written to (unless you have a unlocked 0225/0401 – Rare!) The Drives with Firmware Version 0272 (if you have dashboard 13599), 0225, 0401 and 1071 can ONLY have their Keys Read unless they have been modified or unlocked.
