My analysis at Tom's Hardware confirms that only the ROM is affected by the update.

FWIW, I found this in the MASS module:

Code:

Once again it points to "1AC28yrB.d11", Trinity.

Option 1 - The OP has stated that there is no firmware version on the drive's label.

Option 2 - I have checked the drive's resources. I cannot find an overlay file that isn't empty. So how does this model work? :?

Option 1. What is the point in copying ROM from donor to patient PCB (opposed to simple pcb swap)? And have you ever tried to write saved Samsung ROM to PCB and has it worked? I have never tried it, just want to know if it really works.

The OP will have to buy some PCBs and try them, maybe he/she will be lucky.

Samsung very rarely prints the fw on the label.
