My intention is to use my 1T LaCie Rugged as the host to transfer old photo files that are currently on CD. I just need to be able to transfer them using a CD reader. I don't know what external to get. This should have already been done, but who would have thought that computers would do away with CD drives so quickly. (Same thing I thought about floppy drives.) Everything is going into the clouds. :)
Is there a built-in DVD reader? If so, I would expect it to be backwards compatible with CDs. I have three computers here whose specs state they have a DVD reader/writer. None of them will write to CD, but all three will read them.
