I just purchased an LG GSA-4160B for all of my DVD needs....and just realized that I need to read a cartridge Type1 DVD-RAM disk. Oops!
Type 2 and type 4 DVD-RAMS can be removed from their cartridges and read....but what about the type 1 disks? It looks like I would permanently destroy the type 1 cartridge if the disk was removed from it.
So....solutions?
Do I try destroy the type 1 cartridge to get to the data?
Should I return the LG to newegg and try another drive...one that accepts type 1 catridges?
What drives out there can read type 1's? It would be great to have the ability to read all DVD-RAM formats, burn DVD's, etc.
Note: The type 1 DVD-RAM cartide is not mine...belongs to a customer.
Thanks!
