Identifying exact model of TS-H353

Hi. I have the following drive:

It's obviously a TS-H353, but is it a TS-H353A, TS-H353B or TS-H353C? The "HP Model" contains "TS-H353C" but below that it says "H/W: A" and in smaller letters nearer the top it says "TS-H353(B)".

If it's a C, I want to flash the ZZ00 firmware for CD dumping (https://wiki.redump.info/index.php?title= … bility:_CD), but if it's an A or B, I want to flash the Kreon firmware for Xbox/360/Dreamcast dumping (https://wiki.redump.info/index.php?title= … 6_Xbox_360).

Presumably I could damage the drive by trying the wrong firmware?

If you don't want to risk via flashing wrong firmware, then you can check by opening bottom shell. (Just unscrew 4 screws and pull up.)

You will see chipset from Mediatek. If model number of chipset is MT1339 or MT1339e then it's H353c.

Thanks.

So, H353C.

What chipset would I see for H353A and H353B, out of interest?

I don't remember H353A now, but H353B has MediaTek MT1309.

Yea that's a H353C. You can ignore the extra B and A  in hardware revision
