MX-3070N mSata Replacement & Firmware

Re: MX-3070N mSata Replacement & Firmware

Hey there!

So we have a secondhand Sharp MX-3070N unit that's had issues with bootlooping and error codes E7-80 and E7-90. I've usually been able to clear these in the past, but it's gotten to the point where I'm pretty sure the mSata needs replacing (which I can physically do myself). Sharp support won't assist me at all because this particular model is "dealer only" and won't provide me with the firmware/software I need to put on the new mSata. I'm going to try and transfer the data from the old one to the new one but I won't be able to do so if the old one is corrupted (which I suspect it is). We don't have another similar unit so I don't have another copy of the data. My question is, should I just need a copy of the firmware on the board to install it? Is there anything I'd need to do to replace the part? And where can I get my hands on the files needed without shelling out hundreds for a "service call"?

For context on myself, I'm familiar with standard PC components, builds, and software, but a lot of the copier stuff is lost on me. I've referenced a user and troubleshooting manual and all signs point to replacing the mSata, but if it seems like I'm wrong about that please let me know! I'm pretty tech-savvy but this copier stuff is rather complicated (and it seems unnecessarily so). Any help is greatly appreciated!

Your part is: MFP program mSATA VHI0MFP23002C. You can find it online. Do not install just mSATA from a computer store.

Do not install just mSATA from a computer store.

I was able to use a standard msata drive. I think it was a 32G...$23 on amazon for a 'major label' device.

Just need to get an image file. (what makes the part you provided unique is that is pre-programmed with the image/firmware)

FWIW.
