nec nd-2500a confirmed to be compatible with the 2510a dual layer firware.
saw tests of the 2500a flashed and burns same quality as the new nd-2510a
also flashed my drive as well and shows dvd+r9 compatibility
just wish there were dvd+r9 media out:(

Very interesting.




Tyler!

figured i'd spred the news for people who don't wanna spend between $200-$300 on new dvdr dl drive when they can pick up the nd-2500 for a pretty cheap price.
i'm guessing after this NEC may pull the 2500 off shelves.

That sounds too good to be true.
Can you post a link to the firmware so I can try it out on my drive? :o

cool this looks v good i hope pioneer relase a firmware upgrade. :)

wel my firmware was 1.06...i just saw that there is out a new firmware 1.07 that add some dvd's.i do't want it cause in greece there aren't such brands

Grab 'em while you can!

You know what? The 2510 is only 10-20 bucks more than the 2500 at Newegg.

Wierd.

yea that is thier way of being able to sell the 2510 and 2500 without having to discontinue 1.

woo, Where did you get the D9 Firmware? really nice.

I m looking to buy a new DVD burner and I looked at NEC, Pioneer, LiteOn drive, but i live the Toshiba drive and it seems that not many ppl got this drive and I wanna know why... it is a good burner.

Okay, new guy here, so go easy on me. :)

If I'm reading this thread correctly, then the 2510A firmware will work on my 2500A, and still give me DVD+R DL and DVD-9 writable formats? Or has anyone actually tested this? If you guys are looking for a guinea pig, I'll definately try it, so long as it won't screw up my drive. XD

yep been tested and works fine search this site for a better firmware than the 2510 drive it's still dvd dl. http://club.cdfreaks.com/

the 2510 firmware works fine also but try 2k5107v2b5dld this firmware excellent DL,8x on most 4X media.
