CD Drive

Hay guys, seems my CD drive is on the fritz. Not that I ever really used it but Id like to have a working one just in case.
Does anyone know if I can fit a generic one or do I need the Akai CDM-25?
Thanks

Teac DW-224E is your friend.

Or the DW-224SL (slot load, i.e. no tray that ejects, you just pop the disc in like on a PS3) if you can find one

Other models have been reported to work.

If you have an HDD installed, you'll have to do the 'pin mod' where you push in one of the pins on the back

Thanks man, I'll check that one out. Seems pretty cheap on ebay.

If that doesn't work I bought a HP DVD RW IDE drive for 3 quid. Broke the 47th pin and it works fine
