PlexWriter 24/10/40A - latest TLA and Firmware that work?

MidNite · Nov 22, 2001

Am going to order a PlexWriter 24/10/40A first thing Friday. I live in Podunkville (nobody sells drives anywhere near here!) so I have to ordr my drive online and won't be able to look at it to determine the TLA and firmware or MFG. date.
SO... I was wondering if people could list their info here (TLA, FW, MFG date) and whether their model copied ALL protected CDs. And maybe even when you bought your's and from where?
[I got the 1210a with 1.8 FW so am understandably wary about which drive I will get if I order it Friday].
-I HATE Podunkville!!!!-
Thanks.
(And thanks for listening...).

The rumours about certain TLA's not working with some copyprotections have been proven NOT to be true. However, the latest firmware is highly recommended! The current firmware release is V1.02. You can get it at Plextors HP. So go ahead and order the PlexWriter 24/10/40A, you won't regret it

(I didn't)

I agree, I have the Plex too ,TLA#0100,it copies everything!Wormie is correct,the TLA issue was just rumour.Go ahead and enjoy it,just update the firmware to 1.02 like already mentioned!

New version --- tla 202

I just read that there is a NEW tla# (202).
Anyone know of results with THIS one?
(I know, I'm paranoid - but sheesh!!)
Thanks.

If you're not too lazy

to look among the previous posts, you will find post called : "Can the plextor 24/10TA TLA#0202 burn SD2 perfectly ???". You will find your answer in there

Thanx, Wormie.

Got it.
(I had done a search for 202, tla, and STILL missed it before - don't know how!? It WAS late tho...).
Thanks.
