The hitachi flash should have a restore.bat. Just use that to restore back to original.


Restoring your drive

--------------------
RESTORE.BAT automatically restores your drive back to original state

* To RESTORE a drive, it must be in "Mode B" and have "Drive Letter"
* Then just run RESTORE from "Command Prompt" while running windows.

* The new RESTORE does not need any backup, it will 100% restore your
drive back to "ORIGINAL" state as long as it is visible in Windows!

* Program will not start unless it detects the version of your Hitachi!

* You can restore any drive, even "v1.1" or "f900" or your own hacks.

* System will check flashed firmware, and redo until 100% completed.

* Once you get the PASS / DONE line, you can shut-down the system.

The above is straight from the Readme.txt from the 1.4 ixtreme firmware folder.

Although, I've never used maximus so I'm not sure if that is different or not.

I can also use ixtreme with the hitachi 0078 drive? I would of used it, but after some reading i thought it was just for the other hitachi's...?

I've never done a 78 drive but if you check out the sticky for flashing hitachi's, you'll find the info you need I believe.
