1) Please don't hoard or inflate prices of these drivers.
2) Info about unconfirmed drives on list can be wrong.
3) There's always a chance that there will be different revision with different laser, so don't overpay.
4) Replacement lasers from aliexpress seem to be low quality, and I've noticed many people recommending to use used laser from donor board.
Opu means laser unit/module.
