I tried to flash it to UJ-845S firmware but without success. I think that without firmware crack it would be impossible to unlock DVD-RAM capability. Also don't expect RPC-1 firmware, RIP-LOCK, Bit-setting... Good people who do this work for all of us say that this firmware crack will not be available because notebook optical units are much more expensive to work on than their desktop brethren.

As for speed this unit complies with MatSHITa rules. Ripping is locked at 2x, I haven't been able to get a decent burn on +RW media and drive just wont burn +RW @ 4x

Speed specification for UJ-845D is:

8X Speed -R Writing
4X Speed -RW Writing
8X Speed +R 4.7GB Writing
2.4X Speed +R (DL) Writing
4X Speed +RW 4.7GB Writing
24X Speed CD-R Writing
16X Speed CD-RW Writing
24X Speed CD-ROM Reading
8X Speed DVD-ROM Reading

UJ-845S and UJ-845B have additional 5X DVD-RAM writing
