Gamecube Backups on D3-2?

I've been searching for the answer to this all night, and I'm still confused.

If I softmod a Wii with a D3-2 drive, can I play gamecube backups from a burned DVD?

Is the drive type irrelevant because its a softmod?

Thanks.

Thanks for that Favs. I better look into getting a drive emulator so.

I'm looking at the flatmii and the wode.
Does the flatmii have any disadvantages other than that you must have it connected to a pc?
Would the flatmii be affected by updates from nintendo?

I'd rather the flatmii if it does everything the wode does, I have a pc running 24/7 anyway so I could use that.

I personally think the WODE will **** all over the Flatmii but the choice is yours.
