Not with that drive you can't, you can only burn CD and watch DVD's...no burning of DVD's I'm afraid. You will need a DVD-RW drive.

There are lots of USB 2.0 and/or firewire drives on the market. A BenQ EW164B or Lite-On SOHW-1693SX are probably the better USB 2.0 drives according to the specs.

-Do you believe you own your computer and shouldn't be told what you can run and do? Then say *NO* to Microsoft Vista!
-Since half the questions here involve media problems, here ya go: Only use Verbatim or Taiyo-Yuden discs (get your TYs from Rima.com, not Supermediastore or meritline). Forget the rest, no matter what "brand" they sell under. Always burn at 4x speed regardless of the speed rating of this discs or your drive. If you have burn problems with these then you have to update your drive's firmware. For double-layer discs, only use Verbatim DVD+R DL and burn them at 2.4x speed.
