If you have the DVR-117 SuperDrive installed in your Mac, you can get faster read and write speeds and add dual-layer DVD support just by flashing the firmware of the drive. The details of how to do this are here.

[kirkmc adds: The usual caveats apply: you could fry your DVD drive, cause a plague of locusts to infest your RAM, incite flooding in your toilets, and void your warranty. Use at your own risk.]
