Do's and Don'ts going from street to R-compounds?

I've searched the archives and haven't really found the answers I was looking for.

I have no R-compound experience and all of my track time has been on some form of a treaded street tire. What are the main things to know when driving on R-compounds versus street tires on the track? Do they communicate with sound and feel similar to a street tire or totally different? How long do they last in comparison? Any good rule of thumb to know if I'm even driving at R-compound grip levels or are the street tires good enough?

Whatever you guys can help me with, I'd appreciate the education before I start shopping 'round. Thanks!
