________________________________________________________________________


-This update dont create a dual layer writing function and dont increase writing speed 8x for DvD+R/-R.

-this Update works only with NEC ND-1300A (retail&bulk), not with OEM releases.
 (OEM means part of a full PC package or external USB/FireWire variant of this burner)
 For OEM products contact your dealer, distributior or manufacturer of PC package.

-You can only update from Firmwareversion version 1.05, 1.06, 1.07, 1.08, 1.09 and 1.0A 
 (you can verify firmware with NERO Info Tool: http://www.nero.com)

-disconnect all external USB / FireWire devices. 

-do not turn off power during the updating process.

-this update is not compatible with dual DvD Burner`s from IOMEGA! 
 (also firmwareupdates for IOMEGA DvD burners are NOT compatible with NEC DvD Burners)

-Warranty will be lost during false updating procedure (especially modified firmwares were used before).
 We (NEC) cannot guarantee correct updating, if "modified" firmwares,  e.g. "herrie.rpc1.org" or 
"etna.rpc1.org" etc., were used before, it is true such "hacks" offer a recovery  function, but their     
manufacturers had only assembled firmwares (NEC will never release original firmwares!), so 
>YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THE SAFETY  THAT 
>YOUR DRIVE HAS THE ORIGINAL FIRMWAREVERSION AGAIN! 
 In such cases we could not offer you a solution any more. You have to repair it by cost then.
