Samsung SH-182F
| Samsung Writer Discuss, Samsung SH-182F at CD and DVD Writers forum; Hello everyone, I was wondering if the SH-182F was using the same firmware as the SH-182D? I searched the forum and it seems the only difference might be the pickup.. Right now I have SB02 on it, is it the latest? |

| WOW... I just finished getting the drive WORKING. It wouldn't even read it's own discs... I followed the hints in the "lead in problem" thread... swapped the 80 pin cable for a 40 pin cable, set the drive as master, and plugged it in on it's own power lead... what a pain in the !(&"!/?(!... but now it works well. For anybody wanted to flash the SB03 "cdfreaks edition" for the D version of the drive, forget it, it dosen't work. the drive reverts to some sort of safe mode to go back to 182F SB01 or SB02... |
| How do you have it hooked up?

| It's on the secondary IDE channel, set as master, with a 40 pin cable rather than 80 pin. I gave it it it's own lead off the power supply (it's not sharing power with anything else). |
| I just thought i'd give this thread a BUMP, does anybody know a way to flash the 182D firmware to this 182F drive? No firmware has been available for the F version in quite a while... |

Since the difference of both drives was big enough to let the Samsung people give the drive an own product name, there is too much difference for a successful crossflash. Michael
