answer to 1 - depends which drive you have and whether your sata chipset is compatible..
2 - no good - need a liteon ihas drive with xtreme firmware

1. You need to manually lt3.0 in the target folder in jf until new jf is released.

2. You can burn with your current burner but it will only burn 97% of the disk which Is not advised. Purchase a liteon ihas for around 18 pound and flash with burnermax fw

Many people remove the drivers to prevent the computer from freezing during the flashing process. I kept the drivers until one of my drives was bricked during the flashing process due to my computer freezing. I was able to recover, but it didn't have to happen.

probably your via card, could try a different sata connection on your motherboard see if that helps if not usb pro m8, its a common problem more with slims but also whilst erasing a liteon
