HD DVD drives for linux?
I think Mike meant to say that a DVD-ROM is *read* *only* and not that it won't read CD's. Of course a DVD-ROM drive will read CD's, although a CD-ROM drive will not read DVD's. In order to burn disks - either CD's or DVD's - you need a CD/DVD-*RW* drive. A CD/DVD+/-RW drive will read/write CD's, DVD+ or DVD- disks

Help Understand DVD Drives
It worked the second time, when I did `sudo ifdown -a` first. Something very similar sorted out the drive symlinks (cdrom3, dvdrw2, etc.).

cd rom and dvd drives
The USGS data center is starting to cut the data to DVD in preference to 8-mm Exabyte tapes and FTP pull. As we are on the end of a relatively slow frame relay circuit, we normally get our data on 8-mm but we are now looking for a DVD solution. Does anyone have a recommendation for a SCSI DVD drive that would work

DVD drive will not read CDs - Vista
Go into Device Manager select those CD-ROM and DVD drives you say appear there. Right-click and uninstall them. Then put media in both; Windows 2000 CD-ROM where it belongs..

DVD Drive install problem
1x DVD-ROM drives provide a data transfer rate of 1.321 MB/s (11.08*10^6/8/2^20) with burst transfer rates of up to 12 MB/s or higher. The data transfer rate from a DVD-ROM disc at 1x speed is roughly equivalent to a 9x CD-ROM drive (1x CD-ROM data transfer rate is 150 KB/s, or 0.146 MB/s). DVD spin rate is about 3

DVD Drive or Player?
Note that the Sony drive has the latest drivers, Device Manager is "happy" with the hardware, etc. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Gene Uninstalling Nero would do nothing to change the behavior of an OS such as XP because it has never been able to write to any dvd +-r or +-rw, only to cd's.

I've also had changes in my /dev/cd* and /dev/dvd* too; a distro upgrade (possibly the last one, from Feisty to Gutsy) changed /dev/cdrw to /dev/cdrw1 (and /dev/dvd and /dev/cdrom similarly); I now have the following: $ ls -l /dev/cdr* /dev/dvd* lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3 2008-02-25 10:17 /dev/cdrom2 -> hdb
