I just got a call from Dell Tech support today regarding reading CD-RW on
the Torisan DVD drive, and they said it will work... you just need to go to
the Adaptec web site and download something called a UDF reader (it's
software). They said once this is properly installed, you should be able to
read a closed CD-RW on your DVD drives. I haven't tried it yet, but it's
next on my to-do list!
