I disagree with that. Plextor and Lite-On are both great drives and you can't go wrong with them, but neither were specifically designed to only burn a certain type of media.
How do you do that?KILLorBE said:I've OC'ed my Lite-On (see sig) and it's still working like a charm.

1) Format a floppy in Win95/98 with the copy system files option (bootable without CDROM drivers).
2) Download the MTKFLASH prog and the Liteon firmware (XSU1.bin) from the link previously mentioned and put them on another empty floppy.
3) Boot to DOS with the Win95/98 boot disk. Then insert the floppy with the flash files.
4) Backup your current firmware by the following command:
MKTFLASH X R /B /M filename.bin (where X is either 1 = Primary Master, 2 = Primary Slave, 3 = Sec Master, 4 = Sec Slave, "Filename" = the name of your current firmware. Note the spaces between the letters after mktflash.)
5) Turn that 24x/32x Liteon into a 40x by the next command:
MKTFLASH X W /B XSU1.bin (where X = see above) It will take a few minutes to write. Don't touch the computer until it finishes.
