hi @all,

sorry about my english but ....

some question about the slimtype sosw-852s
in all reports standing that the unit can be burn double layer

but in the nero infotool v221 is dl support not highlighted.

slimtype drive is in an acer-notebook and nero v63115 shows it as a slimtype sosw-852s --> works in the drive a modified firmware?
give it a firmware for that drive which have dl support or more?

regards

To my knowledge this drive has native DL (+R9) 2.4x support.

Check this and this link.
(Although this is not confirmed on Nero burner compatibility list though...)

Download latest Nero Info Tool and check your specs again.

Update your Nero as well.
