I know the following DVD-ROM's are the only ones that work:
* LG-8164b
* LG-8163b
* LG-8162b
* LG-8161b
However is one better than the other? And does any certain firmware need to be used?
Thanks guys!
(PS: Is +R or -R recommended for Wii backups?)

Thanks and have people been having good luck with +R's? I would imagine those work better as they did in my GC, but I'd like to know as a fact.

My 8164-b seems to work great.
I'm actually having problems with DVD+Rs, I'd recommend sticking with DVD-R
i have a HL 8162 (hitachi LG)
works great
i can dump games in 1hr 50 mins

Yeah that's a great question about the GC as well though I doubt it.
I can't believe -R's are better. Usually being able to set the bitsetting makes a big difference.
