Changing CDRom to CD-ReWriable Recoder

[Chris A Czerwinski]

Fellow Red Hatters,

I wish to change my present TOSHIBA - CDROM 
                         to SONY's - CD-ReWritable Recorder
My present OS is RedHat 9.

If I were to swap my CDRom and exchange for the CDRW and
when I reboot the PC - Will KUDZU prompt me for new hardware? 

Or will I have to Uninstall my TOSHIBA - CD-ROM, shut down the PC and
then do the swap and will KUDZU prompt me for new hardware.

What other things am I to do when before swapping CDROM's
