You can use it check drive compatibility and get hints and tips. I used it to as reference to replace my DVD-RAM drive with a Toshiba Combo drive.
OS X can recognize most DVD drives. The only real problem is that OS X might not support burning. If your girlfriend has Toast then it won't matter.

Hello all,
I'd like to get my girlfriend a DVD burner drive so she can burn her own DVDs. I've been shopping around, and found a great deal on an internal on Amazon.com. Unfortunately, the info only says it's compatible with PCs.
So my question is this: Is IDE simply IDE? Will the hardware work for her, even if the bundled software is PC-only? She has Toast, and iMovie, and some other stuff, I think.
Any guidance in this question would be most appreciated, and if you've heard any deals on DVD drives (internal IDE or external firewire), that would be great too.
Thanks!
