Yes I know the site but, I now want to change the device ID of a HP (Plextor) SCSI 40x CDROM and would like to get in contact with the guy who made the program to change the ID.
Thanks

The Imation was made by Plextor, that is why it was possible to flash to the Plextor Firmware. It is not for just any CDR.

OK! I guess I'll have to explain my intentions to ward off assumptions. I have a HP CD READER which was manufactured by PLEXTOR. In order to change the firmware on ANY relabeled drive you must first change the device ID to correspond with the firmware you want to use. Thus, I am looking for a program that can change device IDs. Not the specific program to change a Imation ID to a Plextor ID. The guy who made this program has obviously figured out what it takes to change device ID's. This is the reason I want to contact him, not to change an Imation to a Plextor.

Have you read the ongoing thread in the hot deals forum? http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?start=91&catid=40&threadid=286371

People are in the process of creating the program.

The guy who runs that site has it figured out. He made me a custom program to change the ID of my Imation after it was flashed to an invalid ID which prevented it from being flashed as a Plextor OR an Imation.

Thanks for the link to the thread, thats just what I was needing.
