| Re: Best firmware for a MADdog md-16xDVD9 Make sure that it is a 3500 and not a 3520. The boxes are the same for both, check the sticker on the drive its self. If still in doubt post the firmware it came with and post it here.

| Re: Best firmware for a MADdog md-16xDVD9 I have the 3500 as well as the 3520 and I have found the best firmware for the 3500 is 2.18 and for 3520 is 1.UF. This is for TYG02, TTG02, MCC 003, YUDEN000 T02, and TYG01. Even with riplock removed these are very slow readers; great burners though. |

| Re: Best firmware for a MADdog md-16xDVD9 It is a 3500( you lucky dog) Just go to the Mad Dog site and download the latest firmware and the Utitily at the bottom of the page. Install the the firmware, reboot and open the utility and run the bitsetting for +R to DVD-ROM and you should be good to go . After a while you may want to use one of the modded firmwares (will void your warranty) I think I am using one of Liggy's firmwares (2F3 Fast, I think) and it works fine. Edit: Good scan, looks like you have things under control. Happy Burning!
