Of course I'm using the new firmware. :wink:

I don't know when the review will be finished. At the earliest it would be the end of next week. I have a few other things I'm working on right now.

Yeah, I'm working on it right now. I ran into some problems finding media that actually writes at 52x with this drive and some others packet writing at 24x so it took a little longer than I had hoped.

Yeah, I saw that. I think its a little outdated though. It seems to be for the 110M firmware and not the 120M.

Unfortunately no. The only discs I had that would write at this speed were some CMC manufactured Imation and Philips discs.
