I need one that can burn as well as read.
Indeed about the dvdr able to manage cds, play them as well as manage the
software.
i have an entire case of writable medium for work.

Do you need a drive with the ability to "burn" or is reading enough?
As far as I know, all drives that can handle DVDs also handle CDs.
There are a whole lot of different kinds of drives:
- CD, read-only
- CD, read / write
- CD & DVD, read-only
- CD read / write, DVD read-only
- CD read / write, DVD read-write
There was a war about the way writeable DVDs should work. The two
standards were DVD-R and DVD+R.

I think DVD+R won. Usually you don't have to worry about this.
Then there are some drives that can handle BluRay discs.
