Hey Guys-

I'm wondering if anyone knows if the Samsung SH-S202J 20x DVD+/-RW drive will work on OS X. 10.4 or 10.5

I am looking to get it since it's on sale w/ free shipping for 25 bucks, and want to put it into an external FW enclosure so I can use it w/ my powerbook that has no DL and is slow as hell burning disks.

I've found on some foreign language e-commerce sites that it references OS X but I've not found anything in english.

EDIT: Along the lines of this question, I'm lso wondering if I hook just any external DVD-RW up to OS X via FW if it will work, or does it have to be "compatible"...I plugged up some random HP FW external burner I have here at the office to my PB and it worked...


Anyways, if anyone knows let me know please!
