Compared to what? Only RPC1, 3x00 @ 3500 and Riplock removed (39 bytes). Furthermore ID string change, which might be about another 300 bytes

I'm considering buying a NEC ND-3500
What are the advantages of using the TDK 1616 firmware, beside the RPC1 and removed Riplock?

Excuse me if being a bit slow but are there any speedhacks applied to this firmware?

Cheers,

So besides the RPC1 and Riplock removal (done by Herrie ) what are the difference/changes between 2.16 and 2.17?

Cheers
