I am having a samsung sm-352n cdrw/dvd-r combo drive. I run Xp professional with sp2. I read in some technical reviews that a firmware upgrade would improve performance on my drive. But they have also told that it might cause problems. As of now i am not facing any problem with my drive except buffer underrun errors while writing at express speeds!! Do i have to upgrade my firmware ??? And is it safe???
buffer underun errors occur mostly due to scattered data on the HDD
so try defragin ur DISK and write
upgrade u'r firmware only if it starts to give problems,firmware upgrade is justs fine-tunes or updates the writer making it problem free upto some extent.Remember,make sure u download the right firmware and mistakes(power off while updating or running multiple tasks) can cost u'r writer dearly.
i try to follow a simple rule...
dont fix unless broken...!!
so if ur drive is working fine then dont interfere!!
