5.0 out of 5 stars One of the few drives for backing up Wii games, October 22, 2008
I don't know what the previous review is about - sounds bitter - I have used this drive before and it worked perfectly. Seems like the above reviewer had a defective DVD-ROM.

Here is the info from wikipedia:

"A DVD drive capable of reading Wii and GC discs

Only specific drives are capable of reading Wii and GC discs, obviously in addition to the drive you will also need it installed in a PC with proper drives. At present the only drives known to be capable of reading Wii and GC discs are the following:

* Hitachi LG GDR-8161b (IDE)
* Hitachi LG GDR-8162b (IDE)
* Hitachi LG GDR-8163b (IDE)
* Hitachi LG GDR-8164b (IDE)
* Hitachi LG GDR-H10NBLK (SATA)
* Hitachi LG GDR-8082N - USB SLIM Portable Drive"

If your in the market for this - then this is the DVD drive for you.
