Firmware for NEC 6500A
Is there a firmware update for the 6500A? It aint very good compatible with my discs, it is only able to burn at 6x, while it should go 8x.
I've found a few firmware update but those are not ment for OEM drives so it doesn't work.
BTW, I'm on 202C now.

Are you running Windows XP? If so, you shouldn't need drivers for the device. Windows already has drivers.
I'm running the ND-6500A and it works find. Didn't install any drivers (in fact, the unit did not come with any drivers).Tastendruecker

Hi Jerry Park
We do not speak about drivers - we do speak about firmware (which is installed directly into the drive)!

I found to links:
http://tdb.rpc1.org/#ND6500A
http://www.de.nec.de./softwareoverview2.php/id/557/lang/ENG Version 2.24 or 4.24.
But (I believe) in case you will use these updates - you will loose the dell warranty.
B.t.w. did you check your discs itself? Not all 8x discs can be burned with 8x speed in reality.
Here is a list of some discs and the maximum burn speed into the ND-6500A:
