Dell doesn't write firmware. Dell will release the manufacturer's
firmware after they have tested it.



And I think that's true. What I find hard to believe is that they'd expect a
customer to sit on their hands with a brand new system that won't read/write
to (any?) media.

If that's true, that's a load of crap.

He can't even request a drive replacement if this thread is accurate because
any identical replacement BD-ROM drive is going to do the same thing.

Someone at Dell should be kicked in the man bits for missing such a thing
(again, if this is universally the case with this particular drive) imo.
