Please help me to edit a binary file (.bin) from a Winbond chip

Hey guys,

first of all, sorry, but I’m not sure if this is the right section :slight_smile:

I have an enclosure for RAID operating two 3.5" HDDs.

It’s a WD My Book Duo (model WDBFBE0240JBK)

Two things I want to change on the PCB:

1-Turn off the restriction for HDDs
=WD has programmed the board to use WD HDDs only, but I want to use some from Toshiba

2-Turn off encryption
=WD has encryption enforced programmed in this board, but I don’t want to use it

Attached are photos of the PCB and the chip.

Chip = Winbond 25X40CLV1G (1927)

I was able to read the chip, but can’t edit the binary myself.

The bin file is attached. Please check and let me know if you can help me here…

Thanks a million,

psykodaddy
