[HELP] Sony DRU 510-A firmware
Posted by muddyblue on June 24th, 2004


I updated my Sony DRU-510A dvd burner to the latest firmware (1.1A) but now
I have trouble writing Bulkpaq 4X dvd-r.

I would like to downgrade to the previous firmware version (1.0a or 1.0b)
but it seems those versions aren't avalilable.

If anyone can help please let me know.

Thanks in advance!

I have the 1.0d and 1.0f firmware saved on my hard drive right now. Do you
want me to post them here or send it as an attachment to your email?

I have those two versions and they don't work! I'm looking for 1.0a or 1.0b
but it's very hard to find them.... (

Thanks a lot anyway!

I had the same problem at work with a Sony 510-A after upgrading to the
newest firmware.
Downgraded the firmware and it did not help.
Will not successfully burn an Imation -R, but will burn a TDK +R.

Also have a 510-A here at home and the upgrade caused no problems.

Sony's tech support answer is:

"If the media is not on our supported list we don't guarentee it to work.
Flashing to a higher version of the firmware can make the drive more
sensitive to media!"

Note the TDK brand is on the approved media list and Imation is not.

I won't be buying another Sony branded drive. I'll just buy the Lite-On
next time.
