| NEC / Optiarc Writer Discuss, NEC ND-3500A and NEC ND-3540A firmwares at CD, DVD and Blu-ray Writers forum; Hello.

Hello. Last time I was here was a while ago after working out how to flash my NEC drives with Liggy's firmwares. Been happily burning since then (Cheer's Liggy). However, I want to start using dual/double layer discs with my drives and so have come back for further good advice ;-)
The drives are:
NEC ND-3500A(G)
Firmware Version 2.TG
Vendor specific info: 05071900BT-LIGGY
and
NEC ND-3540A
Firmware Version 1.W5
Vendor specific info: 05031600BT-LIGGY
As I said, I want to update the firmware to use the drives with dual layer discs. I've been using Datawrite DVD-R 4.7s for the last few years and never had one single coaster (well not one coaster since flashing with Liggy firmwares). That's amazing considering I've burned well over a 1000 discs with the drives. For that reason I was looking at the Datawrite DVD+R DL discs, which are 'economical'.
So, can someone please recommend the best firmware to use with these drives to support latest media?
Thankyou.
Simon

Liggy's 2.1B bitsetting firmware for the NEC ND-3500AG is the latest firmware for that drive.
I wouldn't recommend anything except Verbtaim for Double Layer media. It's not 'economical' if your DL discs don't work properly, and most other DL discs don't work nearly as well as Verbatims.__________________
