A few weeks ago, Apple posted the first updater for its SuperDrive, which will allow the use of the newer, higher speed DVD-R media. The first updater was for iMac and OS X only. Other versions of the updater are now available, covering the iMac and Power Mac G4, running OS 9 and OS X. http://www.apple.com/hardware/superdrive/ The story is that if you don't run the updater, and try to use the higher speed media, it may damage the hardware of the SuperDrive.
