Trying to Flash Firmware of I/O Magic AKA BENQ 1620

[cfoster]

Guys I got one of the I/O Magic AKA BENQ 1620 Drives. It is listed as Atapi DVD DD 2x16x4x16 [FW G7C9] in Device Manager. On the Drives label it is printed BENQ 1620. I tried to update It’s firmware from BENQ’s website to version B7K9. When I try the Flash it tells me that the drive is not supported. Any help would be appreciated.
