Hey guys,
So this is what happened..My h943 m-28 drive was flashed with ixtreme 1.5 using Iprep about 8 months ago. That worked fine and I have been able to play my backed up games.
When the new firmware came out I downloaded Jungle Flasher and downloaded the new firmware. I then put the ixtreme 1.51 firmware in jungle flashers firmware folder so that it could auto load like i read in the tutorial. So I took apart my computer and my xbox 360 unhooked the sata cable from the 360 to the drive and pluged in my VIA sata card from my computer into the back of my 360. I then turned on the computer and installed the PORTI032. So i then opened jungleflasher and my drive came up and everything just like the tutorial said it would. So since my drive was previously flashed I used the VIA chipset only option for unlocking the drive. Everything worked fine as i did what it said (turned off 360 and turned back on w/in 1 second). the drive then said "Drive in vendor mode" so i went along with the tutorial.
i then followed the tutorial and pressed "read" and saved the file. it then asked "would like to auto-load iXtreme
for Samsung Drives" i pressed yes and everything seemed to be fine..and i'm now in the firmwaretool 32 tab. I checked the "dvd key @" and the "dvd key @ 0x40ec" and they did not match. I didn't think anything of it and continued to the next step. I then pressed "write" but it failed 3 times!
I tried it again with the same success. So i stupidly pressed the "erase" button on jungle flasher and it said it erased it. now when my 360 is plugged into my xbox the green light just continues to blink like it doesn't know its there..and it won't eject. When i turn on my computer and plug in the sata cable to the back of the 360 it causes it to freeze. Even if both my 360 and computer are off and i plug the sata cable in and turn them both on at the same time i get the same result. frozen..computer and a drive that won't eject.
So my question is..is there anything i can do to save my drive and my xbox? if anyone knows i'll be very greatful!

The tray not ejecting is because you erased firmware and I am guessing there is currently no firmware on the drive this is why this has happened.. in terms of saving.. I am not sure.. ? sorry...
