  1. Firmware Upgrade 2.0A

    Improvements: Improves reading and writing performance on DVD-R. Improves reliability and recognition on certain DVD-R's.

    Enhancements: This free firmware upgrade will allow Sony DRU-530A and DRX-530UL drives to be able to record at 8X maximum on DVD-R media, and 4X maximum on DVD-RW media. Appropriate speed rated media is required.

    Compatibility: This firmware upgrade is for Sony-branded DRU-530A and DRX-530UL drives only. It will not upgrade any other Sony drive models and could cause non-compatible drives to become non-functional if this firmware is flashed to them.

  4. I have to apologize for this 'not-intirely correct' post...

    After posting this 2.0A firmware upgrade, I tried to install it on my Win98 system and it didn't recognize my DRU530A drive -- then read the installation message, "For Windows 2000 and XP". I don't run either. So I went back to Sony's site to see if there was a Win98/SE version, and couldn't find one.

    Oh yeah....

    After going to the Sony link (above), you need to select the DRU530A from the dropdown list of drives on that page -- otherwise, you'll only see the v1.0f firmware update on the page.
