So, here's my dilemma... I recently got my hands on a Go Video standalone DVD Recorder. The drive inside the player will read DVD+R's and +RW's. Only thing is that it won't recognize any blank +R or +RW media that I threw at it.
I then decided to have a look at its insides and lo and behold, the drive that's inside the machine has an IDE interface! I pulled out a spare IDE DVD drive i had from an older computer and it seemed like it recognized the DVD+RW i had thrown at the other drive. I haven't tried recording yet because i didn't know if it was safe or even possible to do it.
Anyone else try this with another machine that had an IDE interface? What kind of results did you get?
