This is the latest and last firmware for the ND-3540A DVD-ROM writer, as well it' s original specifications' leaflet. It can be used only with a unit that currently has the 1.01 or 1.03 firmware, as the accompanying "readme" file states(you should carefully read that too!). I have downloaded them directly from the manufacturers' site(don' t bother, they have already removed them) and used them on my own *ORIGINAL* drive.
