    A Compact Disc (also known as a CD) is an optical disc used to store digital data. It was developed to store music at the start, but later it also allowed the storing of other kinds of data. DVDs are of the same dimensions as compact discs (CDs), but store more than six times as much data.Variations of the term DVD often describe the way data is stored on the discs.so lens for detection is around same but need firmware and some modification.

    The laser device present in the DVD writer is different from the one present in the CD writer.so you can not burn dvd in cd rom well you looks behind from time my suggestion is go and get dvd writer its now cheap and one can easily buy.

    difference between DVDs and CD-ROMs is much less . The size is common for both disks 120 NM in diameter and1.2 NM thick. Both usually are labeled on the clear plastic center, near the hole. so you can read dvd in cd rom but you need to change its lens and its firmware so better to get new dvd rom.
