You can do this. You'll have to use jungleflasher to do it though. Here is a run down.
have your lite-on files handy, the key.bin, indentify and identity.bin files as well.
Connect the hitachi drive and get it in mode b with jungleflasher, if it's a 79, don't forget to do the unlock step.
If the hitachi has been flashed with ixtreme before, you'll need to restore it first.
Once restored to stock, flash it with ixtreme.
Once thats done, choose flash spoof data it will pop up a box and you will need to choose the lite-on drive from the list. It will also ask for the identity or identify file here, I can't remember which, but it's obvious. Don't worry about the key data, it's greyed out and thats the next step. Continue to flashed the spoofed data.
Now we need to flash the key so select Flash Key sector and put in your key. Best I can remember, you can use the key.bin file to do this.
Once you get the key flashed in, you might want to do a dump on the drive and double check that it's right. But that should be it.

Here is a video on upgrading a lite-on from 1.50 to 1.51 with jungleflasher. It works the same way, but you would use jungleflasher 1.60 and the ixtreme 1.60 firmware:

well man if its a lite-on then it can be recovered as long as you have the dummy.bin and/or the files from that drive.
this is how to do a restore on a lite-on
