LG Blu-ray Burner in External Inclosure

[AcidBurn003]

Quick question for all you who experience with pc blu-ray burners. I am going to buy a blu-ray burner from newegg ($129.99). its this lg on:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-175-_-Product

I read on another thread here that it is a pretty good one. But anyways on to the question. I am not really going to use it to watch movies, but to burn data on to blu-ray disc because of their size. (I am digitizing all my dad's slides and photos of the family, so it takes up a lot of room. I up to 4000 slides scanned) I have the new iMac 27" (duel 3.6 ghz, 8gb of ram, OSX & Windows 7 64bit) and to use it i will need to put it in an external enclosure. Does anyone know if there will be problems with it hooked up this way? I have a hp lightscribe drive in an external enclosure and it required a firmware update to work like this (it was a first gen lightscribe, so its old). After the firmware update the lightscribe drive worked just fine via the external enclosure. Just want to make sure a blu-ray burner will work in an external enclosure before i buy it.

Thanks in advance for your help.
