Hello oneday,
For large capacity NAND/NOR FLASH based devices we always recommend the Dataman-48Pro+/Pro2. We would not have recommended the D48XP/UXP for programming the Hynix HY27US08121 or similar large capacity NAND FLASH devices.
The 48XP/UXP and 48Pro+/Pro2 programmers are from two different ranges and so hardware, features and support vary. The Dataman-48Pro+/48Pro2 programmers are based on newer hardware, some of the largest devices currently supported on these programmers have reached 8 & 16 Gigabits in size.
The alternative programmers that you have mentioned are either substantially more expensive then the 48Pro+ or missing critical features such as any bad block management which is especially important for the Hynix HY27US08121 NAND FLASH device. You have already seen that your friend is successfully programming this device with our programmer. As you have an existing programmer we would be happy to offer you a trade in discount for your current unit against the 48Pro+. If this offer is of interest then please contact me directly
[email protected] and I will provide an accurate quotation for the trade-in.
Regards,
Neil Parker
