The 4b00, 4c30, 4d20 and 4e10 indicates where in the firmware that they key was found. The easiest way to tell which one to use is to dump your original and then open it as the target in jungleflasher, then look at the key location. It will be one of those four addresses. Then you can select the proper firmware to use. If your going to use jungleflasher to flash the drive, you don't have to worry about it. JF will select the proper on automatically. But if your going to use FW toolbox, I would use JF to find the key location and then use that to figure out which ixtreme to use, then open it with FW toolbox and put your key in and flash it then.
