So Confused About This All. Wanna Help A N00b?

You might or might not be able to backup your collection. It depends on which DVD-ROM your console has. After you find that out, you can look into Optical Disc Drive Emulators like the xk3y, BoxZii, Wasabi, etc. If you want to flash your DVD-ROM (presuming it's flashable at this point), you can also do that. Check out the JungleFlasher tutorial for information. (Google is your friend.)

Flashing your drive will require making physical backups of the discs. ODDEs require just ripping the discs and storing the images on an external drive.

If you check the manufacture date/lot, you'll probably be able to guess what DVD drive the console has. This thread at Team-Xecuter is somewhat accurate.
