Different burner image == different firmware dump about psychson

[brandonlw]

The burner image is an executable containing all the code to read the firmware or flash new firmware. Boot mode itself doesn't have this code, as it can be more complex than it has room for.

It's possible that the firmware images are corrupted or garbage -- in your case, I wouldn't trust them. The "Useful Links" section of the wiki can tell you where to download "official" images.

Use DriveCom's GetInfo command to get your controller version and flash chip ID, which can help with determining the right burner image to use.

So the burner image is runtime code that is not stored on the chip at all, correct? And a newer version only contains patches / updated to this code so every version version should run all chips? If this is right, I'd preferably always use the latest version right? If not: why not?

The latest firmware I can find is FW03FF01V11210M_20140912.BIN. Should this version run on a random PS2251-03-based USB thumb drive like mine?
