Lenovo/Iomega StoreCenter ix2-200 Recovery

Literally been banging my head for weeks after acquiring one of these devices with no hard disks trying to recover the dang thing.

Today I finally had success – and this is a guide that ACTUALLY works for this particular system I own.

A lot of the guides out there tell you to hold the reset button, or copy such and such firmware file to USB formatted in FAT32… etc etc.

With a little help from the serial console, and a guide (of which provided me with the winner firmware image – nothing else, unless of course you want to install ArchLinux!) it looks like I have this thing up and running again. Granted, yes it’s archaic, and probably doesn’t support SMB3 (i’ll find this out once I get the firmware fully updated).

Instructions for a FULL recovery, with new or blank hard disks

  • Download this firmware file: https://kiljan.org/downloads/ix2-200/ix2-boot.tgz – let me know if it dies, i’ll upload it here.
  • Format a memory stick with FAT32 and create the following folders in the drive:
    – emctools
    – In emctools create two more folders
    – ix2-200_images
    – ix2-200d_images
    – Depending on the device it will use one or the other folder to search for the file you just downloaded.
    – Copy a copy of the ix2-boot.tgz into both ix2-200_images and ix2-200d_images
  • Insert USB into NAS with your new blank drives
  • Wait about 10 minutes or so – it’ll switch itself off after it’s done, but keep an eye on that USB LED it’ll be flashing for a while
  • Once it powers down, power up without the USB drive and plug in a network cable
  • Let it sit for another 5-10 minutes to figure itself out
  • Do a scan of the network or login to your router device and find it’s IP address
  • Boom you’re back in action

    Console output from recovery

    So if you’re inclined to know what happens during the process here’s a complete output from the serial console (pasted below).

    Something that did catch my attention was the following – BLUETOOH?

    DisplayPort – OSD Brightness/Contrast/Colour Controls Disabled!

    Either I am terrible at using Google in 2022 or it’s out to get me. Whenever I search this issue, all I get is results for MacOS, and no clear answer as to why for some reason when I have a monitor – 4K UHD in particular connected via DisplayPort it locks out the ability to change the brightness, contrast and other colour controls?

    Not sure how clear it is on the photo above, but as you can see the HDR setting is white, the rest are a shade of grey. This is on an Asus TUF Gaming monitor, but the same is also true for both my Lenovo 4K UHD monitors at work desk.

    I posted about this in a Facebook group full of IT technicians, and basically the responses were as if I’d just entered the profession with zero IT knowledge (sadly not, been doing this 16 years now!).

    My work arounds for this which I really don’t want to do in all honesty – Switch to HDMI and potentially lose the full ability of this monitor or find an app to control it over DDI/CI (which the app I did find was hopeless and now is no longer developed).

    I am hoping that this page gets indexed, and other people who are as frustrated as me share their experience on this one.

    Thriftshop Internet Radio

    How this project started

    This project started a few years ago as an idea to convert an existing internet radio from it’s current hardware, to a more powerful and up to date system.

    The system in question – A Logik IR100

    A prehistoric photo from about 14 years ago of the device a few months after I purchased it and subsequently discovered the secrets within.

    For a little background on this radio, check out this page (now only available from the wayback machine) – My Logik IR100 Internet Radio Resource page (archive.org)

    And this page for the reasoning behind the USB hub, naked USB wifi dongle and at the time £80 8GB memory stick – My Logik IR100 Internet Radio Resource page (archive.org)

    Why this device?

    This device, not only at the time was actually one of the cheapest version of this radio around, when you tear it down to its parts it’s actually perfect for a Raspberry Pi upgrade.

    Sadly I don’t have my particular radio with me here right now in Vancouver to show some high quality photos of the internals but you can see a few here – but from my memories of tearing this thing down it had enough buttons for what was needed, an LCD display which looks like a typical parallel Hitachi HD44780 based display, it’s own PSU and amplifier for the speaker.

    However, I had one problem. I didn’t know how to write code, or where to start making functions do what they were supposed to. I had no pin out for the display – this was important because the alignment of the pins were slightly different so had to be sure 100% I wasn’t going to nuke it!

    The project now

    For the moment sadly as I mentioned before this amazing device is currently still sat in a box in storage back at home in the UK so won’t be converted for a while.

    However since I started thinking about this project back then, and the struggles of basically mimicking what it did, plus enhancements to bring it up to date I stumbled upon this perfect project:

    Raspberry Pi Internet Radio (bobrathbone.com)

    This has now become the basis for the device I am going to use, and hopefully the final conversion of the Logik once I can get it shipped over.

    Thrift Shopping!

    Or going to the charity shop for you British lot – Something I never used to find a joy in. Then I was seeing the absolute goodies my Canadian girlfriend was finding here in Vancouver.

    To make this project happen and keep with the spirit of conversion and upgrading an already existing piece of hardware it was time to go and raid the shops and see what I could find.

    The perfect device?

    I went through many ideas in my head as to what I should use…

    • A clock radio with 4x 7 segment display – get really fancy and make that work along side retro fitting an LCD display of some sort?
    • Go down the retro route and find the cheapest antique radio that an LCD screen wouldn’t look too out of place, or would comfortably take a large VFD display?
    • Or find something else that fit the bill?

    In the end? I found something else to fit the bill.

    A Centrios iPod dock radio with segment LCD display, and IR.

    I found this for $8. Probably paid a little too much considering it didn’t have a remote control or power supply with it. I did try and find them but apparently they grew legs and disappeared.

    But, it should be perfect. Has useful buttons that can be used for the control of the radio, and the screen cut out is perfect for a 16×4 character LCD, and two 3W 8ohmn speakers. Sadly the amp for the speakers was integral to the mainboard of the existing guts but thankfully Adafruit have a great hat that will accommodate these just fine.

    Current project status

    Due to time constraints, shipping and just life the project is still not really complete, however if all goes well I’ll have the finished project by Halloween this year (2021)

    Highlights

    Below are some pictures of what’s happened with it and where it’s currently at.

    The initial concept test design

    Grabbing the bits and pieces I had already from just tinkering I made up a mock idea of what I am expecting, and how parts might fit.

    Parts in use here:

    • Displaytech 164A
    • Common SPI/I2C to Parallel converter board
    • Raspberry Pi 3B+

    Seems to fit ok, however the LCD isn’t really the colour I would like and unfortunately is a little big for the case. I discovered will be a permanent problem due to the design of the PCBs!

    This results in the snooze button needing a little bit of hacking and chopping later on to make it fit. Sadly it will never work again but I also don’t want a gaping hole in it.

    The final design?

    I think that this will be the final design. I switched out the 3B for a Zero W initially as it is far smaller, and generates less heat. Yes, I loose the ability for ethernet but the work to increase the hole size on the back, and get it to align nicely is too much for it to go wrong. But further testing shows that for the internet radio software to run well a bit more grunt is needed from the 3B.

    Adafruit Speaker Bonnet now installed, and potentially looking to maybe retro-fit a USB-A to Micro-B breakout panel, and Micro-B to Micro-B breakout panel to the back as this maybe an easier feat (and neater)

    Next stage is to wire the buttons!

    Buttons!

    This part was a challenge, and when if I was to build this project again this part will be something to improve.

    The buttons are actually a part of the original radio device and looking at the way they were originally wired could have been easily an SPI device as opposed to just pure GPIO as we’re going to be using.

    The board needed to be butchered to remove the resistors and links between the buttons. I also need to make the board shorter as the current snooze button sits directly on top of the LCD and means that the case will not close properly.

    As you can see that process has already begun!

    Button Testing

    With the resistors gone, the links broken, the board shortened (that almost ended in epic failure) and the new wires connected it was time to test out my handy work!

    Complete!

    With a slight tweak of the button wiring, and that passing the test it was time to put it together.

    Here is the final piece!

    Remarks

    This was a fun project to do. There are things I would do differently, and mistakes made. But then when isn’t there things to reflect on?

    There are certainly a few software bug issues with the Adafruit that need to be figured out too but hopefully I can figure those out and shall pass those fixes onto Bob Rathbone to verify and add to his project as they directly impact it.

    Apple MacBook Pro M1

    I recently went and bought a base model Pro M1 as my 2013 Air is now on it’s third battery in less than 2 years thanks to ebay. My 2012 pro which I use for djing is starting to show it’s age however this computer won’t replace it unless either a mircle happens and bars open again as it is still functional. Also the M1 Air was sold out, no biggy because I actually when I come to think of it perfer the Pro in many ways.

    Either way, it wasn’t a wasted purchase as I work for a managed service provider and it’s good to get ahead of the curve because clients will start buying M1 stuff and I am considered the Mac guru in the office so might as well keep that crown.

    My thoughts? Mind. Blown. I knew ARM was getting pretty good in phones, but I really underestimated how these CPUs are compared with it’s x86_64 counterparts. ARM is in everything from your router to your toaster and probably lightbulbs so I’m thinking well it can’t be all that great and how can you compare ARM to Intel etc… How wrong I was.

    The speed of these things just unzipping a file, booting up and even emulating 64-bit Intel is just insane. I even had the scenario of ARM emulating Intel emulating a Motorola 68000 based Amiga 500. As a DJ I had to also try out Pioneer’s newly released M1 drivers, and installed Serato DJ which is Intel and no where near supported. Guess what? Absolutely pooed over my 2012 in everyway.

    My biggest fear? It does not get supported for as long, or last as long as my old Intel Macs. The “soldered” nature does make me sad because if something does fail you can’t replace it like you could with the 2012 RAM and HDD/SSD and the 2013 Air SSD but overall reliability hasn’t been an issue for me.

    HP Z620 BIOS Update Failure

    So my beloved HP Z620 Workstation Monster has just suffered a BIOS update failure.

    It seems that this is a common issue with running the update from within Windows 10.

    Following various post including this one seem to have not worked: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Business-PCs-Workstations-and-Point-of-Sale-Systems/Crisis-Recovery-Jumper-Z620-Z420-Z820-Revealed/td-p/6658619?lightbox-message-images-6658619=179776i02BEED432C66A811

    $110 later, new board on the way. Seems that whatever happened has super broken it to the point even the recovery ROM does not function.

    Removing the RAM triggers an error status with beeps and red lights meaning it doesn’t appear to be completely dead.

    Second Hand Laptop?

    One of my side hobbies along side fixing anything that has a plug is playing DJ in night clubs and bars.

    I often find myself browsing DJ groups on social media and seeing posts about other DJs looking to source a new laptop and the age old arguments over whether you should spend a little, or spend a lot and whether you should go with a Windows computer or Apple MacOS computer.

    But something else caught my eye when looking at some of the suggestions. The price gap between a second hand laptop, a new laptop and the outrageous prices being charged for hardware that is clearly very dated.

    NewEgg is a fine example of a retailer and it’s sellers playing on technical inability and lack of understanding of computer specs.

    Example

    Filters used: Intel Core i5, 8GB RAM, 250-500GB Storage.

    For around $440-445 Canadian, what do you get? A 6th Gen (Q3 2015), a 4th Gen (Q2 2014) and a 2nd Gen (Q1 2011) all with very similar solid state storage sizes. Where is the logic in this when you compare the brands, the age and certainly the benchmarks?

    Looking at the various benchmark sites, and comparisons of spec’s the 6300U vs the 2520M – There is a big difference between these two. Across the board the 6300U is about 20% faster in all areas, and has a far lower TDP at 15W vs 35W, meaning battery life and performance be far better.

    When you compare the 6300U and the 4210M on the benchmarks they are pretty much identical however the memory speed supported on the 6300U is far faster, and the TDP again is far lower with the 4210M being rated at 37W.

    For just a mere $200 more (granted they’re currently on sale, and budgets don’t always stretch!) you can jump up to the latest 10th Generation processors or 8th generation. Again some outrageous pricing between generations! That said the jump from 8th to 10th generation comes with a mix of opinions.
