no ROM stands for "Read-Only Memory"
you want a DVD-RW drive as in "Re-Writable"
so if its just a DVD-ROM then it wont burn just read
That's what I meant....In his particular model, those two entries stating ROM are for the read ability, which is what he was asking about specifically. I realize now my response was poorly worded, but I was answering his question about that model being able to play CD/DVD.
