RNS-510 HDD replacement/SSD swap DIY

[kamold]

If all else fails use Josi recovery cd then load a factory firmware version and finally upgrade to 5238.

Ok thanks . Do you know where to find a factory firmware that works good ? Best regards

I tried Josi recover CD and I have an error : no HW mapping - error ecuorder.txt.... with other cd I have error 202 gateway with radio . Sometimes SWL error is for HDD , sometimes for RADIo . Perhaps a DVD player problem ?

[kamold]

Sure it's possibly a cd drive error.
There were issues with the m3 drives
If it's m5 less likely.
Try a different brand of DVD and use a different burner.

I have an M5 . During all this process I tried different brand of CD , DVD but always SWL error. I think changing CD/DVD is a good thing and cheaper for beginning .

With all this effort maybe consider just replacing it with an rcd330

[Fwi98]

CD player is 50 USD on AliExpress , not so expensive . RCD330 is really a downgrade 😋

The copy won’t help you. You need the dongle as well as the program.

I see USB connexion is made via UART interface of the RNS .
