Hi,

You could go to this site and download the firmware for your SOHW- 1673S.

try and flash it again, the file name your looking for is “DR16JS02”

regards. :slight_smile:

@lilchina1
you must press the eject button for ~ 5secs so mtkflash can recognise the flash type.

If windows can see the drive, just use any of the 1673S firmwares on my site. If not you may need to hold the eject button when powering on the drive (system power up), to use MTKFlash.
