Ok, sorry for asking yet another newbie question. I really appreciate all the responses on the others. What is firmware, and where do you get it? Going off of everyone's advice here I'm going to get a Pioneer A06/106 and just want to know what firmware is and where to get it.
Pioneer A06/106 Firmware
- Thread starter kerriened

Firmware is basically the software that exists inside a piece of hardware, in this case the Pioneer burner, that tells it how to operate. It takes input data from the computer and "converts it" to information that can be output to a disc. I purchased the 106 not too long ago, and it came with the latest version of the firmware, so you will most likely be all set. There's no real need to worry too much about updating the firmware unless you are having a problem operating the hardware. And when you do be careful, it can ruin your drive if you do it wrong. You won't have to worry about installing any firmware after you put the drive into your machine, it should just run fine. The Pioneer 106 is a good model, i'm very happy with mine.
