Re: [optical] Replacing Dell Drive
I have that machine. There are no rails. You do have to remove the front panel though to access the bay. Other than that, there is nothing unusual about the system. |

any drive should fit in the dell as long as it has normal drives, and I believe the 4600 is no diffrent. You will have to attach the easy install rails from the old drive to it, but other than that it's a snap |

The LG drive dellmanpro posted is an excellent drive. It's also available in black here:

Both that one or the NEC you post are excellent DVD burners. However the LG does just a bit more like reading and writing DVD-RAM discs. |

I was thinking along the lines of this drive: »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···27152058 I know some parts for Dell are proprietary so this is why I am wondering. |
