I just bought a new NEC 2510 drive from newegg.com and I cannot get it to burn at 8x – the option doesn’t even exist.
I have been trying to use Ritek G05 DVD-R media that I have confirmed using DVD Identifier.
The firmware is 2.15.
I have tried using both the included Roxio Easy Media Creator Basic DVD Home 7.0 as well as Nero 6.0.0.11.
What do I need to do to get 8x burning to work?
Thanks.
does the firmware support this disk for that speed
I don’t know. Apparently it can burn 8x on something. After all it’s advertised as 8x and a few review sites have said they burned at 8x.
I picked Ritek G05 media because people said it was high quality.
How would I go about finding out whether my firmware supports my DVD-Rs?

I updated to firmware version 2.16 (http://www.de.nec.de/software/1612_Firmware_ND-1100A_WIN1A3.zip) and now it recognizes the disks as 8x disks.
