DVD Burner Question
What is a good DVD Burner to read and burn original Wii games? I have read that only LG Burners read them to produce ISO of the original game. Should I buy a dual layer burner or stick with just the regular -+burner. Are any of the Wii games Dual Layer? Or is it a select few? What is everybody using for the dual layer games, such as SBBB?

Thanks for taking time to answer.

I believe the following models are the ones that can read Wii Discs

GDR-8161b
GDR-8162b
GDR-8163b
GDR-8164b
(there may be a couple others)

The following link has all the information you need regarding DVD Drives for Wii Discs

Also USB Gecko can be used to back-up wii games.

Does anyone know where to get these drives? I tried buy.com and others and they are either $45 or out of stock.
