    flashing with newer firmware enables the drive to burn new makes or new types of dye used on discs. before i flashed my old pioneer drive it would not burn some types of discs. after flashing i could burn 4x discs at 8x with no problem and no coasters. the firmware i linked to above is region free which means you can buy films from the states or asia and play them on your computer which works out a lot cheaper than the ripoff prices you have to pay here !!!

    you can do damage if you do it wrong. you must not have a disc in the drive, have other programs running and you must not interrupt it when flashing is in progress. other than making sure you have the exact firmware for your drive model its really easy. but if you f*uck it up dont come crying to me :rolleyes:
