I want to add a DVD burner to my PC, if I add an internal device what are the issues, my pc is about 5 years old, Windows XP home is kept upto date but I've never updated BIOS. It has a DVD reader but would prefer to keep that.
If I took the USB2 attachment root, should I upgrade my 2 port PCI card, both ports on use or is it ok for the writer to share a BELKIN 4 port hub with printer, card reader and external hard drive?
As a separate issue is it possible to replace the front mounted USB 1 ports the PC came with with USB2 or does that require a motherboard change?
