Anyway, I'm not really sure what country you're in, but the firmware page can be found by going to http://www.nec.com/cgi-bin/products/products.cgi?cat_id=PC0011
and choosing you country, drive, support, and firmware updates.
The latest firmware for that drive is 1.07.
I note the first thing stated is "The provided firmware upgrade should not be used with external USB / FireWire drives or with OEM drives from HP, DELL, Medion, Fujitsu, Siemens, Gateway, or any other OEM manufacturer. If you wish to update the firmware on an OEM drive, contact the dealer or manufacturer."
visit http://support.necam.com/Optical/downloads/FlashFirmware/readme.asp?ID=9 for full instructions
And the second thing stated is
" 1. This is a Windows-based flash utility. Using "Add or Remove Programs" on the "Control Panel", verify that neither of the following programs are installed on the system. These applications must be un-installed prior to proceeding or the firmware update will fail.
+ Intel Ultra-ATA Storage Driver
+ Intel Application Accelerator
Note: These applications can be reinstalled after the firmware has been updated. The latest files can be found at www.intel.com . "
