    Hello.

    Can a user upgrade the combo drive (CDRW/DVD ROM) that's standard on the LG LM50 to a CDRW/DVD RW drive?

    Thanks,
    Avi

    Difficulties like...?

    I am wondering the same thing, since I've got LS50A, and my Combo drive just stopped reading some of the discs of mine (and it burns coasters)... so, instead of just replacing it with the same drive at the LG service centre, is there a possibility of paying a difference (to the LG service people or whoever) and getting it replaced by a DVD burner as well?
