Help needed

September 16th, 2006, 13:09

OK, I have a Maxtor N40P Drive that is driving me insane. I need a software to flash the drive with the firmware I downloaded.

Now, the program: Maxtor Firmware Repairer PRO looks good, but never will I spend $400 on it. Doing it it another way was resulting in a defeat.

Does ANYONE know ANY program bootable in DOS/WIndows/Linux that can actually do it?

Hi,

Just look for cheap solution!... please use them and make such damage to the drive even an expert will be in trouble to restore the data :)
I have just met such case, I told the customer if he can supply the original FW of the drive (it has been overwritten by some 'expert') I will recover the data for X if he cannot, the price will be 2X and I was very friendly.

regards,
pepe

I know, but I would preferably would do it myself. Then, with a program in my hands and a good sets of firmware, any HDDs corrupted will eventually revive and I will make big bucks lol :p
