I am finding it very difficult to get information on the Samsung drives (circa 4-5 years old). No one seems to know if they get flashed by MS. Also, I've seen no word that any new LT+ fw is being developed for these models!

You're going to have to flash at some point anyhow, especially for when LT-Max comes out, so I say it's worth the try. I'm pretty sure though. It's hard to get confirmation because you have some people stating they updated to latest dash and it didn't reflash their drive.... and then you have others saying that you're supposed to reflash manually anyhow.

WTF! So I am going to have to find the original firmware backup I made 5 years ago?
That could be... difficult!!

I really enjoyed reading this next part

The LT+ v2.0 release for Phat models is imminent, and it was
requested that we release these in advance in order to give everyone
time to have them downloaded and ready to play for once the fw goes
public. |

Here are the directions for burning these using imgburn
 Spoiler: |
We recommended that you use the latest version of ImgBurn (v2.5.5.0
at the time of writing, downloadable at
http://www.imgburn.com/index.php?act=download). Older versions may
handle this process differently and/or give a different set of
errors.
Although it is set by default in ImgBurn, please ensure that under
Tools > Settings > Write, you have "Layer Break (For DL Media)" set
to "Calculate Optimal".
Please ensure that the layerbreak is set as 2133520 in the .dvd file.
If you already have the XGD2 (or other) layerbreak value set in
ImgBurn, the .dvd of the XGD3 ISO will override that setting and use
the proper layerbreak.
As mentioned above, ImgBurn will automatically reposition/limit the
layerbreak to 2086912 when burning to regular DVD+R DL discs.
Please see the included imgburn-xgd3-errors.png image for screenshots
of the errors you'll encounter in ImgBurn and what to click on in
each dialog that pops up.
Step by Step:
1. Choose "Write image file to disc", and after loading the .dvd
file, click "Write".
2. ImgBurn will pop up a notice saying that there is not enough
space on the disc to burn the image, and asks if you would like to
continue anyway. Click "Yes".
3. Another message might pop up saying that optimal layerbreak
position exceeds L0 capacity. Click "Yes".
4. An error will then pop up noting that "Set L0 Data Zone
Capacity Failed". Click "Continue".
5. The image will begin writing to the disc.
6. Nearing the end of the write process, ImgBurn will pop up an
error at around 97% or 98% (this is what we want -- it's
intentional!). Click "Cancel".
7. A notice will then pop up asking if you would like ImgBurn to
try and perform the "'Close Track/Session/Disc' functions". Click
"Yes".
8. Let the disc finalize, and you're done!

Why would you dl something that you can't test or you are not sure it's going to work ?
Just be patient..maybe we will see all that xgd3 games rlsed again after LT Max.

Sweet! But what about updating to the newest dash? Will LT Max trick the console in allowing me to do this without reverting to the stock firmware?
Finally, can I extract the key from my existing modified firmware on the drive?
Cheers in advance!

Yup. I fear we might have to start using those drive emulators sometime soon. Btw these xgd3 backups are not live safe and most likely will never be due to the physical disc size |
Odd.
Why would he say this?

seems obvious that m$ will (soon) ensure that the final 1.7% is used for critical data, or at least checks.
we will probably be ok for this years big releases though so i guess we just roll with it and see what happens next.

The Hitachi drives seem to be fantastic for pirates; they're immune to AP25 detection (simply because they CAN'T read AP25 sectors, so MS skips the checks on Hitachi drives) and they don't get flashed with the new updated dashboards.
