Updating Firmware on Sony DW-U10A

[SteveC]

Does anyone know if it's possible to update the firmware on the DW-U10A (the OEM version of the DRU-500A)? There's nothing listed for it under the Sony site, and the updater for the DRU-500A doesn't detect the drive.

Could it be that the 510 doesn't need a firmware update yet?

 

[SteveC]

No, I'm not talking about the newer DRU-510A, I'm talking about this drive.

After a little searching, I came up with this thread, which has a link which lets you change the firmware to the DRU-500A. It works, and now the Ritek G03 are properly identified as 2x, instead of 1x as they were previously.

Good going, Steve.

I also found that when I did a search for DW-U10A firmware but didn't mention it since I didn't think it was what you were after.
