It was due out at the end of November last year. I was waiting for it but gave up in the end. However, time was not the only reason.
I had some technical questions and filled out a tech response query form. The response I got was: ''All info on our web page'' and a link.
I had explained in the query that the info I wanted was NOT on their web page and wasn't happy with their response (this was from Yamaha in Europe) so I sent a note to Yamaha US who handled the matter in a much more professional way but couldn't give a clear answers to my questions (basically about FW and firmware etc).
The drive is still not available in Spain and my local dealer has told me personally that he will not even stock it due to the 'outrageous' price tag Yamaha put on the thing.
Needless to say I now have a Sony 1600RP Ext FW Spressa drive that is working like a dream.
