Message: [QUOTE="woody, post: 193971, member: 4"]Should not be a problem.You need an IDE ribbon which is probably connected to your motherboard already.Just a matter of deciding which one to use.Typically there are two IDE ribbons.Most logical choice is Secondary master for your dvd drive.Your main hard drive is usually connected to the Primary IDE ribbon.If you have a cd/dvdrom drive there is an audio connector attached to it,in most cases it can be skipped on your dvd writer.Lastly you need a power connector for your new drive.There are usually extra power connectors inside your computer.So you may not need anything extra. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite2" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)" data-shortname=";)" />[/QUOTE]
