Safest firmware upgrade for Plextor PX-708A
 

I've researched the forums here, and read the article relating to this problem as well. It seems the easiest, and most fool-proof way of upgrading my firmware is to put it back in my M$ box. I'm just not that confident of upgrading from within my Mandrake 10.1 box. Any comments or suggestions before I start sweating this job would be appreciated.
