Read the following link:

The universal flasher from Agent Smith should do the trick, but remember that there is no way going back to the original Memorex firmware once the drive is flashed to the Pioneer firmware. The reason is explained as follows:

Why would you want to? There is 1.07 firmware available for the Memorex.

The Memorex firmware hasn't (and wont be) patched. That's a reason for some.

what does the patching do?
improve read speeds only or something more too?
