    Check the console boards and read up.

    If you buy a ROM, you won't be able to burn the games afterwards.

    Unless you have another burner separate and are looking for a specific ROM to rip games?

    And i do believe there are some drives better for ripping than others, but you'll have to look hard to find the posts as I can't remember where I was it.

    Ok, well then let me clear it up for you...

    ROM = READ ONLY MEMORY = NO burning capabilities!

    You want a dvd BURNER = can burn dvds.

    S'alright.

    Read the stickied guide written by me at the top of this forum for an idea of what to look for in a burner.

    However, i'm not sure if the same applies to hardware when it comes to burning games

    ok i read that even before i posted anything and as i have been sifting through the forums it seems that samsung sh-d162c is the only one but that seems kinda weird that only one manufacture would have the capability?

    No, I think there are a few LG drives but I'm not sure.

    Really not a console backup guy, sorry.
