Need advice on how to make copy of game disc
-
I had the Xbox360 (yes, I know, it's "vintage") Rock Band 3 game disc, but because of my stupidity, I banged into the console, and that disc was trashed - and so I bought a NIB replacement disc. However to avoid this in the future, I want to make a copy of this game disc, and only use the copy disc to play, that way if I do this again, I could easily make a new copy. Anyway, so I need to get an external CD writer, and I want to make sure that it can make an exact copy that the console will accept. Is there anything special I should look for in a CD writer? It seems that all such writers can write DVD, and I presume that any such writers could do a proper game disc copy.

I think any DVD writer will be sufficient. However you probably can't use a normal disc copy program, as I believe XBOX (and PlayStation, other consoles) use various tricks to prevent illegal copying. You should probably do a web search for something like "how to copy XBOX disc", and use that information to find a utility that will allow you to copy the game disc.
Keep Calm and Carry On
