About the Firmware
The “firmware” is a small piece of software built into the CRW6416SX drive, and
is used to control its basic operation. Since it resides in flash memory, it can be
overwritten and updated.
To ensure the correct operation of the CRW6416SX drive, updates to the
firmware will be made available. You can find information about the most recent
firmware for the drive on YAMAHA CD-R/RW Drives web site.
