i'm trying to replace the dvd rom drive in a Dell Inspiron 6400 with a dvd burner
i couldn't find anything on dells website about a drive for this computer...called the sales line and the cheapest they had was one for $100

i'm trying to find one cheaper then that...i've been looking on newegg, but i'm not sure what kind will work on this computer

can anyone help me out on this one?...i'm trying to find the cheapest dvd burner i can for right now

Any ATAPI drive should work. Worst case is the front plastic may not fit. But as far as connections, ATAPI is what the laptop has.

Hello spazz31585,

Have you tried to check and compare prices with an external DVD Burner. If replacing the internal DVD Burner of your laptop doesn't work then the next option will be to go with an external DVD-RW.

Thanks,
