Hi, there is disadvantage that the iMac DVD drive can only switch region 3 time so
I was thinking of buying an external DVDRW to Watch DVD on my slot loading iMac which can read any region DVD.
Is there such a drive?
If yes, any recommendation?

there are applications available that will hack your DVD to free it from region restrictions. other apps can also reset your changes back to 5 permitted.

there is a post somewhere around in these forums where we talk more about it. Check in one of the OS X forums.
