I would like to know what DL-burner I should use to make back ups of my 360 games seeing as how I travel alot and don't wanna lose them. Yeah I lost GTA IV the other day on a trip

Welcome to the site bro. Hope you enjoy it and all of the other sites we have to offer.
Well you don't need anything because you have to burn the backups at 2x-4x speed if possible. Any good burner will burn good backups. _________________________________________________________

ok but i have seen on other sites that you need to flash a DL-DvD burner to read the 360 disc to make an image. I'm not downloading the games they are my own I just want back ups. In all the articles I've seen it never says what burner to use I downloaded the software they said to use but when I run it, it says its unable to find the drive in order to burn

What you need to read the disks is a Samsung SH-162D. It is just a dvd reader, not a writer. You need to flash it with the Kreon v1.0 firmware available on xbins before you can read the disks.
To write the disks, as SiK_WiD_iT said, any decent writer will do but most people go for a Pioneer. The latest one is the DVR-115D. Don't need to flash it to burn the games, just make sure it is updated with the latest firmware from Pioneer. _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.
