I'm building a new system and buying this drive: LG GSA-H10N which after reading the online reviews should meet my meagre needs. Now, I have never owned a DVD drive nor even used one so I'm a "virgin" when it comes to this. Could someone please help me out by answering the following questions?:
1) Will this drive be able to read CD-RW discs that have been already formatted with Mt. Rainier and InCD?
2) Would it be wise to immediately update the firmware to whatever is the latest version? What benefits would that bring?
3) NEWBIE question #3 . . . is there a chart or an article somewhere that lists what the different kinds of DVD media are and the use of each? I'm totally ignorant of what all this DVD -/+, RAM, etc., etc.. is all about.
THANKS!!
Jeff
