1). not sure of the reasons, but +r and -r are two different formats, seems like you should be able to burn both at 16x...maybe a hacked firmware would give you that option?
2). you should be able to use both regardless, just make sure if they are on the saem ide channel that one is jumpered to master and the other to slave.
3). not sure what is best with that burner but ritek seems to always be a good choice, ritek g04 or g05.... cheap too

hope it helps you a bit
