Read what I wrote to you on the previous page.. |

How many of you are upgrading because you can vs. upgrading for features you need? |

That's different from my question, which is there any performance limitation in the hacked software that would drive one to replace it with original FW? The flashing process posed me some problems having to do with the USB connector or size of my USB stick. If I don't have to replace it to recover some feature or capability, I'll leave it with the hacked FW. |

If it is the same version as the last, just keep it, but don't let it stop you from upgrading. I used an 4gb sandisk, worked very good, but the rigol is kinda picky about the usb stick, and that is also documented in the official firmware upgrade doc. (It states that you need to test the usb sticks on the rigol before you attemt to start upgrading) |

The smallest stick I could find around here was 8GB, so that's what I used. I've read that the stick should be less than 4GB, or less than 8GB, depending on which source you read, so I knew I was close to the edge. I did read (some of us actually DO read instructions) about inserting the stick and looking for "USB detected" as a test. That test worked fine, and I was able to print a screen image to the stick, so I thought I was good-to-go. I will have to find a 2GB or 4GB stick someplace. (Perhaps one can't buy them that small anymore?). But in the meantime I wanted to keep Zombie28's FW and use the scope without worrying about performance issues. Thanks. |
