plextor mx1000l firmware update

Hello,
A year ago I bought a plextor mediax 1000l. ([http://www.plextor-europe.com/products/plextor_mediax/px-mx1000l.html]) In the manual plextor said that firmware update could come. However 1 year later there are still no updates.(I even wrote a mail to plextor 2 weeks ago about this and they didn't even answer.) The plextor mx1000l is also a realtek rtd1261.
Is it possible to use the emtec firmware update on the plextor? and are there risks involved in updating the firmware?

With kind regards

Why do you want to change the firmware? The findings in this wiki most are made with the Emtec R100. This has no HDMI so you can't use our firmware. Your may be compatible with an other Emtec or an Ellion - you have to research.
If you don't have the original firmware as a file, there is The risk, that you have no way back if it does not work right.

if you look at http://www.mpcclub.com/forum/showthread.php?t=18405 there is a possible solution (in italian).
translation by bablefish gives rubbish, use google to translate, and you will get a readable and understandable solution.
didn't tried the fw upgrade yet.
