Slim/Laptop DVD ROM's

Sportbilly · 16-September-03, 11:33 PM

I'm a little confused.

I need to fit a slimline DVD ROM into a project I'm working on, and I'm not quite sure what to look for with respect to the interface. What keywords do I need to look for. I see a lot of ATAPI's, EIDE's and Ultra DMA's.

Can I use this? With an adapter? What does ATAPI-JAE mean?

Can someone summarise this all for me BEFORE I pull all my hair out.

PS, using a regular Flex-ATX mobo BTW, with "UDMA 33/66/100 IDE interface"

Thanks folks
