| USB 1.1 External Enclosure for CDRW!! URGENT HELP PLEASE I have a dell 2100 & only one 5.25' bay. In that bay I have a liteon DVDRW SOHW 832S & it gives probs reading VCD's & some other CD's. So I want to buy an external USB enclosure for my LG CED8080B CDRW, to read my VCD's. I think I have a 1.1 USB My question is can I use this setup to straight copy CD's (Audio, data & VCD's). What speed will I be able to burn at??? How does windows see these external devices? Will it show up in MY Computer as another CD ROM??  HELP ME I'm Going to buy it tomorrow |

| Re: USB 1.1 External Enclosure for CDRW!! URGENT HELP PLEASE VCD is MPEG1 so if you use WMP, just go to options>file formats>select all and you should be able to watch your VCD's. Are you looking to purchase a external usb hd? If so then go USB 2.0 and your O/S will recognize as a HD.

| Re: USB 1.1 External Enclosure for CDRW!! URGENT HELP PLEASE Your Litey DVD burner shouldn't have problems reading VCD format (MPEG1). You "might" try upgrading your firmware for your Litey. You shouldn't have to resort in a purchase of a external enclosure m8. The Firmware page http://forum.rpc1.org/portal.php
