HomelyDespot rents both types. The drum is for a bit more of a 'rough-cut' . .they're not so bad to use. You can always use a finer grit, if youre worried.

The oscillating floor sander are for really fine. (remeber that whole 'sand with the grain' thing from woodshop?)

fwiw, I did mine with just the drum type.
