Thanks Dan,

Which DVD drive did you buy? Are you happy with the burn speed?

Has anyone ever tried backing up to DVD? If so, which drives, which
software, and which media works the best?

Thnaks,

Just got mine installed. It came with Ahead Nero Burning v5.5.8.3. Since
all the machines I wish to use it on also have dual 60gb hd's, I use Ghost
to create the backup image (on the other of the two drives), then burn the
images to DVD-RW. Then, as the user updates his/her software, I just
re-burn the same RW(s).
