# QL Spin Doctor

This issue I’d like to discuss Sony ED drives. First though, a few updates to last issues firmware lists for disk interfaces. Update the Miracle Super Gold Card firmware to 2.49. Apparently there is a version 1.17 Cumana rom in existence. If anyone has access to one please let me know. Also add QUBIDE to the list of Hard Disk interfaces. QUBIDE is currently shipping with version 1.28 firmware (see review in this issue).
